First Day of Clinic in Las Mercedes

The group arrived safely in Las Mercedes. Today, they will begin clinic and probably see about 120 patients throughout the day, including people from Rio Colorado and Las Crucitas. It's common for people to come to the clinic in busloads from outerlying areas of Honduras.

Stay tuned for more updates! In the meantime, watch video from last year's trip to learn more about the "Exploring Medicine" class taught by Dr. Dennis Clements, and the medical trip to Honduras. This is the 10th year Duke students have traveled to this remote area of Honduras through "Exploring Medicine" to deliver medical supplies and see patients.
