"I had an amazing experience in Kenya, and I truly cannot say enough positive things about the program. Every aspect of the experience felt thoughtfully planned and well executed. From the hospital rotations to the cultural activities and excursions, it was clear that International Medical Aid put a great deal of care into creating a meaningful experience for every intern.⁣ ⁣ One of my favorite parts of the program was the wide variety of activities outside of the hospital. Visiting places like Haller Park, exploring local communities, and participating in the Community Outreach Activities allowed me to experience Kenya beyond the clinical setting. These experiences gave me a much deeper understanding of the country's culture, people, and healthcare system, and I felt that IMA did an excellent job of immersing us in all that Kenya has to offer.⁣ ⁣ The in-country support was exceptional. All of the Program Mentors were approachable, engaging, and genuinely invested in our experience. They were always available to answer questions, offer guidance, and ensure we felt comfortable throughout our stay. They also helped make our beach safari a memorable experience by creating a fun, inclusive atmosphere where everyone felt involved. From our arrival at the residence to our time exploring Kenya, their dedication helped make the program both enjoyable and rewarding.⁣ ⁣ Overall, this experience had a profound impact on both my personal and professional growth. It strengthened my passion for becoming a Physician Assistant, broadened my perspective on global health and healthcare disparities, and taught me the importance of adaptability, compassion, and cultural humility. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity and will carry the lessons I learned in Kenya with me throughout my career."⁣ ⁣ — 𝐇𝐨𝐩𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐞𝐡𝐥𝐞𝐫, 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔 𝐀𝐥𝐮𝐦⁣ 𝘜𝘯𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘺𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘥, 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘨𝘦 𝘗𝘢𝘳𝘬 𝟸𝟶𝟸𝟽 #internationalmedicalaid #medicalinternships #prepa #globalhealth #kenya
