Letters: Rheumatologist’s Trip to Rural Nepal Is A Fine Adventure

Humeira Badsha, MD  |  Issue: December 2013  |  December 1, 2013


 

A Fine Adventure

I just read “Veteran Rheumatologist Takes Expedition Medicine Trip to Rural Nepal” by Steven S. Overman, MD, MPH. What a fascinating article! I always wanted to go so many places and Dr. Overman makes it seem easy. I live and work in Dubai, which is an adventure, but nothing like this trip. Please let him know I loved reading his adventure.
