A Good-Bye Party for Dr. John Gilbert

After 6 weeks of volunteering side-by-side the Arrow Web Hospital medical staff, Dr. John Gilbert is heading home to the UK.

Dr. John Gilbert now holds the distinction of being Arrow Web Hospital's very first internationally based medical volunteer. We are truly grateful for his dedication, care and the empathy he demonstrated toward the people of Kayole-Soweto during his time at the hospital.

Dr. Gilbert was honored with a small party hosted by the Arrow Web Hospital staff and presented with a plaque in appreciation of his hard work. We will miss him and welcome him back to Arrow Web Hospital at any time!

Much love for Dr. Gilbert

The children of Kayole-Soweto are really enjoying Dr. Gilbert's time at Arrow Web Hospital. We'll let their smiles tell the rest of the story.

Arrow Web Hospital welcomes Dr. John Gilbert

A few weeks ago, Arrow Web Hospital staff had the distinct honor of welcoming Dr. John Gilbert, from the University of Sheffield in the United Kingdom. Dr. Gilbert will be volunteering at the hospital for the next 7 weeks. He will be working side by side with our doctors to gain firsthand experience in Kenya.

Dr. Gilbert was looking for a place that he could volunteer his time during his break from the university. He spoke with a member of AVIF, a volunteer organization based in the United Kingdom, who directed him to our hospital website. He then contacted Bramuel, our hospital administrator and made his travel arrangements. We are very excited to have him here as our first internationally based medical volunteer.

Dr. Gilbert has expressed a desire to talk about Arrow Web Hospital when he returns to the University of Sheffield and hopes to help develop relationships with other medical doctors who may wish to volunteer here in the future.
