Hey Everybody!
Sorry it taken me until my last night it Guayaquil to write my first blog post, so here it goes. The last week or so in Guaaquil have been amazing and fun. Last week was packed with medical experiences that range from doing soft tissue techniques on patients to seeing a pneumonectomy.
The weekend was also a blast saturday we took a bus to Salina´s in the morning and laid around all morning on the beach eating empanadas and what ever food happened to walk by us we then cought a bus that afternoon to come back to Guayaquil. Sunday was A free clinic in duran, which was held at one of the local schools. The clinic, which was open to the public, ran from 9am until 3pm and provided family medicine, pediatirics, obgyn, clothing, pharmacy, and dentistry to the community.
This monday started out at Orames Gonzales as i saw that matt had already told you. on this day i was working in the emergency room and got to see about fifteen patients. For the most part most of them had no serious injurys just respiratory problems and GI problems.
Tuesday night was the first time that Dr. aguirre took me and christina to his clinic in duran. This was a good experience to see other parts of duran, also we got to work our OMM magic on some patients of the doc´s. After seeing close to twenty patients it was 1030pm so we headed home for some well needed RandR.
On wednes day we got to go to Duran and do OMM on patients at alicia house for the mornig. We also got to see the clinic which is almost done and looks really good.Sorry i dont have any pictures but hopefully the next group will post them when it is completely finished
peace, jeff
