Hammond Street Medical Team

On March 14, we went to the airport to pick up a medical team of four people coming to do a week of medical work with us through the Hammond Street UCC in Bangor, ME. We didn't know what we were in for!

We had a wonderful week with these four beautiful people. Jim and Brian, our two doctors, did 654 consultations in a week with the support of Becky and Ashley who kept all of the patients moving and sent them home with their prescriptions and smiles on their faces.


This group was a joy to work with as they did their work with passion and kept the days filled with laughter. We worked out of the clinic in Pinalejo and did a half day in Montanita, a nearby mountain community. They had a wonderful sense of humor about the challenges of the week including some moutain adventures and a truck named "Misery."


After we dropped them off at the airport, the house was very quiet. They were certainly a treat to work with. Click the link to see pictures of our week together in Honduras: http://picasaweb.google.com/charles.eh/HammondSt
