Today is #InternationalWomensDay

Volunteer medical trip to the beautiful island of Guanaja, Honduras. We return for our 5th visit next week. Home visits. Checking for atrial fibrillation with a Kardia monitor in a cryptogenic stroke patient. Limited resources, use the technology you have. Grateful to serve.
