Saturday at Clinic
The team had a second night of rest and arrived just before 8 A.M. local time to begin seeing patients. There was a crowd outside waiting of employees and patients. Soon the doors opened and patients lined up to get their paperwork and basic testing before being sent...

Highlighting Surgery
