In Support Of Radiologists Without Borders

When  you talk with Dr. Tariq Gill about Radiologists Without Borders, the organization he founded in 2008, you can easily understand why he and his organization have so many fans and supporters. 

Dr. Gill and the other volunteers at Radiologists Without Borders are impassioned and committed to making a difference in people's lives, no matter their socio-economic status. We've been fans and supporters of Dr. Gill and RWB since it's inception.  RWB not only supports the local teams while they're on a mission trip, they also educate with the goal of sustained, long-term improvement in the quality of care within the communities they visit.

Current projects and missions are underway in several areas, most notably Tanzania, Honduras, and Ukraine. Each of the projects has their own focus, based upon the needs of the community, but they share the common bond of compassionate care and respectful integration within the respective hospital communities. The goal of RWB to is to be true partners, not interlopers. 

RWB's most recent trip was to Muhumbili University of Health and Allied Sciences (MUHAS) in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania. For a fascinating  diary of the trip, check out this link to the blog posts by Dinesh Kommareddy at the RWB website. 

As many of us look back on memories of our summer vacations, Dr. Gill and RWB volunteers will reflect on the impact they had on the lives of patients and healthcare practitioners in Tanzania. On the final day at MUHAS, Dr. Gill had each resident he had worked with recite the modern Hippocratic Oath "...I will remember that there is art to medicine as well as science, and that warmth, sympathy, and understanding may outweigh the surgeon's knife or the chemist's drug..."

We've supported RWBs work for some time and encourage you to do so as well. Please visit their website at rwborders.org or their facebook page to learn more about RWB activities and provide financial or volunteer support for their valuable efforts.
