Journey to Madagascar: PA Student Edition

Hi everyone! My name is Sydney and I am a Physician Assistant student studying at Mercer University! I am currently in my second year of graduate school called our clinical year. We get to rotate across 11 different medical facilities over the next year and a half and learn the ins and outs of various medical specialties, which help us hone our skills and become a well-rounded student and future provider for our patients. One of the incredible opportunities Mercer gives us is the ability to rotate internationally.

I have chosen to utilize this opportunity and go to Madagascar in August of 2025! We will be flying down with a crew of other medical professionals and bringing medicine, supplies, and our various levels of expertise with us! We will spend 3 weeks working in a hospital and clinic seeing hundreds of patients daily.

I would be so grateful for any contribution whatsoever that you can make to help me reach my goal! Happy 2025!
