Default Working as a doctor in Nepal.

SDN Members don't see this ad. (About Ads)
As of now, I am a senior in High School and Sophomore in College. After graduating with a four-year degree in Biology, I want to become a doctor. After becoming a doctor, I wish to work in Nepal as a doctor. Are their any organisations that would facilitate this? I thought about MSF but have heard that doctors working with them do not practice, but instead teach the local "physicians". Am I correct about this, and if so, are their any organizations that will let me teach and practice?

I think it really has to do with the project that you are participating in. I know doctors without borders go to Nepal. You can read about their activities here: http://www.doctorswithoutborders.org...ctivity-report

Being a doctor is great and your intentions are great as well. Good luck with it.

If you want to go somewhere and be somebody, you better wake up and pay attention.
