Summer 2017 Participant
I learned a lot of Spanish and a lot about the day-to-day life of a physician. We were able to observe lots of different procedures from daily check-ups to birth to surgeries.

Ashton B Risser, Summer 2019 Participant
The element of the program that I found most rewarding was the shadowing experience. Although there was a language barrier the doctors really did want us to learn about what was going on. They would make sure to talk things through after a consultation if I did not know what was being said and they made sure to point out the important organs, arteries and veins throughout the surgeries. I found it vert rewarding that the doctors went out of their way to make sure that I fully understood!

I loved the excursions that the Atlantis Project put together.
