"My experience as a volunteer pathologist at a Kenyan hospital, 2001-2012"  — words and images presented by Alan Northcutt, MD.

Alan says the following about his coming presentation:

"Friends of Peace members have long requested that I talk about my work at Kijabe Hospital, and I will finally do this presentation.  I will discuss the environs of the hospital and Kenya, my work in pathology, the state of medical practice in Kenya, the evolution of AIDS treatment over this time period, and a bit of the natural beauty of this East African nation.  I have collected many photographs over the years.  I will attempt to be concise in order that attendees may have time to ask questions if they wish.  I hope that members will find the talk informative and interesting."

Waco Friends of Peace looks forward to this long-awaited event!
