The doctors, in collaboration with local surgeons, carried out successful surgeries including for maxillo-facial diseases and Ear, Nose & Throat cases.

The University Teaching Hospital of Butare (CHUB), where the doctors were stationed, praised the team’s “invaluable contribution and dedication to improving healthcare”.

“The expertise shared by the visiting team has greatly benefited our medical students and residents”, said CHUB in a post on X.
