General Surgery – Observe Surgical Practice in a Unique Clinical Setting
Experience the dynamic world of surgery in a setting that challenges you to think critically and adapt. Our program and Clinic Sessions offers an invaluable opportunity to observe skilled surgeons as they navigate complex procedures and patient care in an environment where resourcefulness is key.
As an observer, you’ll gain first hand exposure to a wide range of surgical cases, including conditions that may be rare in more developed healthcare systems. You’ll follow patients through the full surgical journey—from preoperative assessment to post-operative recovery—while deepening your understanding of surgical decision-making, wound management, and perioperative care.
This elective provides a unique perspective on surgery in a setting where limited resources demand innovative approaches. You’ll learn how experienced professionals overcome diagnostic and procedural challenges, sharpening your ability to analyze and adapt to different healthcare realities.
Beyond the hospital, immerse yourself in the vibrant culture of the Caribbean. This experience extends beyond clinical observation—it’s an opportunity to broaden your understanding of global healthcare, develop resilience, and gain insight into the realities of practicing medicine in diverse environments.
Take a meaningful step toward your future in surgery!
