It was a really good experience. The host family became a second family, the people I met became my close friends. The hospital experience was very formative and I recommend it to all medical students and doctors. The Organization is excellent and the possibilities for discovering the organization, in your free time, are endless. Thank you for making me feel at home. i will always carry this fantastic experience in my heart.

This was my first experience with volunteering, and it was a great experience. The host and staff were so nice and welcoming and so were the other volunteers. The work hours were fitting because there was plenty of time to go explore, which I found great!

It was amazing experience to participate in this project. The idea to do the internship in Tanzania referral Hospital was great. I've learned a lot. The staff in this hospital was open to us and willing to explain everything. Our host Asha was also very nice. We felt like home. A month in the organization was enough for our first experience. We had lots of free time to explore the organization. To sum up, I really recommend this project if you want to gain medical experience and get to know how healthcare system looks like in Tanzania

I had a fantastic time during the project! I can honestly recommend it to every medical student, it is a good way of discovering different healthcare systems and an opportunity to learn a lot of practical competencies. It is also a good moment to explore the organization, working hours are flexible and it is not a problem to manage also this aspect of the experience. Everyone I met there was super helpful and amazingly nice to us. I feel safe and comfortable and I wish to go to the project again in the future 🙂

Volunteering was a remarkable chapter in my medical career. For 3 weeks I had the privilege of working with other doctors in various departments of local hospital, including emergency department, surgery ward and OBGYN. I gained a lot of practical skills and had the opportunity to care for patients with tropical diseases. Beyond hospital walls, the organization's flexibility allowed me to explore the organization's beauty and culture. I spent my free time visiting the city. They introduced me to the hospital director and ensured I had a supervisor during my time at the hospital 🙂

Ha sido una GRAN experiencia. He conocido como funciona la sanidad en la organización y he formado parte del equipo de enfermeros y médicos de diferentes departamentos del hospital. Me han dejado hacer de todo y me he sentido uno más de ellos. Además fuimos a hacer cribados de enfermedades a la zona rural, y también fue una buena experiencia David, ha sido un gran anfitrión. Muy amable, respetuoso, divertido y muy flexible a tus necesidades. Ahora se ha convertido en un amigo. Sobre el alojamiento, Asha, ha sido la mejor HOST MUM que podía haber tenido; asa limpia y comida rica.

I had an absolutely amazing time volunteering here. From start to finish I was always made to feel welcome. Jackson picked me up from the airport and brought me to the house which was lovely and all the other volunteers embraced me nicely. I got a double room to myself which was great. The hours were what to expect and the kids at both schools I was at were tremendous. The food whilst a little repetitive and plain was nice
