S.T.A.R. International is making great stride towards preparing for our surgical teaching camp in Uganda! We have been accepted to an outstanding NGO, Afya, that provides refurbished surgical equipment to physicians doing service work in Africa. So far, we have two complete hysterectomy sets, a fetal doppler, defibrillator, and many other useful surgical instruments.
Our team continues to grow: There are two gynecological surgical specialists joining us, an anesthesiologist, a certified nurse midwife and two Ob-Gyn residents! Go S.T.A.R. International!
THANK YOU AFYA!!!
