Taking Doctoring Duties Across Borders

MSF
Karen Stewart on assignment in India, 2011.

Being a doctor is a job with plenty of challenges.  Now imagine adding many degrees of difficulty by taking the job on the road. 

Not house calls, but countries that have people in desperate need of medical attention.  Assisting them is the mission of Médecins Sans Frontières, Doctors Without Borders in English. 

Karen Stewart of MSF works in mental health and has stories from 11 assignments to talk about.  She'll do just that at the Medford library (Thursday, September 26th), and gives us a preview on The Exchange.
