Feb 13 - GHA Doctor Volunteers in Uganda

charity GHA obstetrician/gynaecologist, Dr. Iola Williams will be volunteering in the Luwero District of Central Uganda as a member of ‘Care for Uganda’, a small charity that aims to raise the standards of maternal health in the country.

At the end of February when she arrives in the District, which is 50 miles north of Uganda’s capital Kampala, Dr. Williams will work in a hospital teaching doctors and midwives the techniques of ultrasound, as well as common obstetric problems.

To support her efforts, the GHA donated two sets of Caesarean Section Surgical Instruments for her to take to Luwero. Dr. Williams commented that when she volunteered there last year, she realized that the machines in the hospital remained unused because no one knew how to use them.
