WHY International relief work? Benefits
Everyone in here is b/c we're interested in it. But it might be good to remind each other and other non-groupies of WHY we are.
Is it:
1. to help the underpriveledged
2. to challenge ourselves to practice medicine without all the resources available to us, ie. relying more on history and physical without imaging and fancy technology
3. be altruistic
4. to get to DO a lot more
5. to SEE a lot more, more variety and a different flavor of medical problems, and therefore expand our knowledge of medicine...
Let's talk about all the benefits. (And then we can talk about all the obstacles to doing it later...)
