CNIS had a pleasant surprise visit to our Vancouver office from some of our African partners, when four Ugandan doctors attended the Conference on Surgery and Anesthesia in Uganda at the University of British Columbia on April 2, 2011.
Dr. Mary Margaret Ajiko, a general surgeon from the Soroti Regional Referral Hospital, was one of the conference presenters. CNIS ESS Patron in Kampala, Dr. Samuel Kaggwa, is a Senior Lecturer and current Head of Department of Surgery at Mulago/Makerere College of Health Sciences. Dr. Tito Beyeza has been head of the Orthopaedics Department of Makerere University since September 2005. And Dr. Josaphat Byamugisha, CNIS Structured Operative Obstetrics (SOO) Patron in Kampala, is the Head of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Makerere University.
We hope to see them all again soon!
