Dr. Jatin Kohli - Ophthalmologist,
On his experience working for Shalina Eye Clinic in Lubumbashi
“Regards from Lubumbashi,
I am very thankful to the Right to Sight team for providing me with the
opportunity to work in this place and add a remarkable experience to
my life.
It was a good experience in lots of ways and I feel really good and
thank god for all that we could do here in the last 7 months. The
hospital is now one of the fastest growing eye hospitals in Africa.
I hope that with all the partners we will really be able to lead the eye
services in Africa as we hoped for when we it started. We have seen around
40000 patients and done more than 1200 surgeries of all varieties.
I wish you all the very best and hope the good work keeps growing in the right direction.
Thank you all once again”
Jatin
