Now, IMA's clinicians are back, providing primary and emergency healthcare, and living alongside the people of Gbamandu village.
Join us as we spend our days treating every imaginable condition: from high-risk pregnancies to typhoid, schistosomiasis, beri-beri, tropical abscesses, river blindness, and neonatal sepsis.
