From Ralph Gousse--Thanks Ralph for coming!!!
Wanted to share with you pictures of our most recent great trip this past week. Haiti Help Med (Ralph and Ninotte Gousse) and volunteer Florida Hospital Internist Dr Bola Akakabote accompanied Dr Ted Kaplan and Elisabeth Kaplan of the Cap Haitien Health Network to beautiful Cap Haitien.
- Day one we did some Hematology and Oncology consultations in Hospital Sacre Coeur of Milot and Hospital Justinian of Cap Haitien: we saw some cases that we were able to discuss with the staff. Unfortunately very limited diagnostic and therapeutic options available.
We also visited a nice urgent care section donated by the Israeli government to the Justinian Hospital of Cap Haitien.
- Day 2: we attended the quarterly meeting of the Cap Haitian Health Network at the Hotel Roi Christophe and we headed to Labadie Village for our first day of clinic.
- Day 3: second clinic day at Labadie Village, only reachable by water taxis. We saw 250 patients that day alone. Great experience. Thank you Ted and Elisabeth!
We then headed back to Auberge du Picolet in Cap Haitien where we reconnected with old friends and celebrated Ted and Elizabeth"s 5th wedding anniversary and also an anniversary for Ted's Cap Haitien Health Network.
I encourage everyone to make this trip one day. Straight from Fort Lauderdale to Cap Haitian.
