We have entered into an exciting collaboration with the Jamaica Hospital Family Residency Program which is part of the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York.
Dr. Reginald Hughes, who is the Director of Family Medicine Obstetrics at Jamaica Hospital, Queens, New York, is also the Founder and President of The African Cultural Exchange which seeks to introduce students to medicine in developing countries.
He has been traveling to the Gambia as well as Sierra Leone for many, many years and has developed a great connection with the people as well as sensitivity to their needs. Dr. Hughes has agreed that The African Cultural Exchange together with the Jamaica Hospital Family Residency Program will serve as the go-between for medical students and resident physicians who wish to participate in our clinical rotations in the Gambia. As such, he will make sure that all credentials are in order, while we promise to provide the students and residents with the experience of a lifetime!
