Well Organized And Super Student Friendly
"As a nurse practitioner at Hastings Indian Hospital, I am keenly aware of the cultural and resource disparities that exist within our nation. I'm enthusiastic about improving this situation, and I was inspired to discover the other Intensive Course students and faculty share my convictions. Now I have a network of colleagues with the same passion as I do! The INMED presenters were experts in their fields, teaching not only from their head but their heart as well. This intensive training was well-organized and super student friendly. I really enjoyed the program."

Exceeded All Of My Expectations
"I have participated in numerous medical teams to various parts of the world and wanted to learn more about diagnosis and treatment of the illnesses I encountered. The INMED International Medicine Intensive Course exceeded all of my expectations. The presenters were very knowledgeable, experienced and enthusiastic. I enjoyed great interactions with the other participants who had rich backgrounds and experiences. Topics were covered in depth, while emphasizing the practical. The Intensive Course was a great experience that gives me a much better grasp of not only the medical but also the cultural and economic aspects of this challenging but deeply rewarding field."

I Was Very Impressed
"As a practicing neonatologist with special interest in global health, I was very impressed with the INMED International Medicine Intensive Course. In addition to providing a review of the basic knowledge on tropical and infectious diseases affecting the world, it included topics on culture adaptation, ethical issues as well as community leadership and health promotion through community development. It was very comprehensive and the speakers were experts in their own fields. I would recommend this course to any health care professional who faces the challenges of bringing health care to the very sick, the disadvantaged and the impoverished people of the world." Winston M. Manimtim, MD Department of Neonatology Children's Mercy Hospitals and Clinics INMED International Medicine Intensive Course Graduate |
Certainly Nurse Practitioners Will Greatly Benefit
"Dr. Comninellis and the INMED staff did a great job in putting this course together for us. As a result of these two weeks, I feel more prepared to take on the questions and treatment challenges that I will soon be facing in Tanzania. I have been sharing about the International Medicine Intensive Course with other nurse practitioners who are interested in medical missions. I am hopefully they will chose to participate in the future. I am certain they will greatly benefit just as I have."

Helped Me Improve My Health Project In Ghana
"Attending the INMED International Medicine Intensive Course was extremely enriching for me, not only because of the clinical topics but also for wonderful people whose interest and experience resonate with my own. Sometimes I felt overwhelmed with all the information, but the teachers were excellent at giving us the basic concepts and practical application. I especially appreciated the cultural topics, for it is difficult to get this knowledge from books. Throughout the course, I identified improvements to make in our health promotion project in Ghana. I recommend the INMED International Medicine Intensive Course to all people interested in medical missions and serving others." Diego Manzoni, MD Founder, Health-Aid Costa di Mezzate, Italy INMED International Medicine Intensive Course Graduate |
INMED Inspired Me To Serve My Own People In Kenya
"How I thank God for entire INMED team. The International Medicine Intensive Course has revived my medical thinking and again inspired me to serve my own people in Kenya. I learned so much about culture and epidemiology; different ways of building trust with people and being integrated into their community. The medical part was also well presented by all the professors. There was no better way than this course for me to get practical training in a short time. Clinical officers like myself will benefit from this course. INMED has become part of my story and the story of many whom I look forward to serving."

Supplied Me With Great Ideas

The course supplied me with great ideas on how to manage diverse problems, including tropical diseases, sanitation, nutrition, obstetrics, and so much more. The classroom atmosphere gave we students an opportunity to learn from each other's experience as well.
