Three medical trainees in scrubs standing together in a clinical setting, reflecting on their rotation experience in Egypt. ‘This trip gave me an entirely new perspective on medicine, showing me what it means to practise with compassion and creativity when technology isn’t always available. It made me reflect on the importance of building strong clinical foundations early in my training and the value of resourcefulness in patient care.
