The Doctors
We are currently identifying agents in our two target countries to help us in the selection of doctors for participation in our program. Our agents will include former and current health ministers, retired physicians, and individuals working for NGOs, among others.
The doctors in our program will be selected based on several criteria including education, demonstration of competence, references, patient treatment record, and willingness to remain in the country for a specified period.
