SUMMER/FALL 2024
Go Doc Go returned from a great trip to Senegal in May!
We brought 2000 HPV tests to hospitals in Saint-Louis and Banjul, and also donated 3 LEEPs and one thermal ablation unit. We worked at hospitals in Thies, Saint-Louis and Dakar training a total of 87 midwives, residents and physicians. Go Doc Go also was a sponsor and guest at the Senegalese Society of Colposcopy and Papillomavirus Pathology conference in Dakar. Dr. Maggie Carpenter conducted a LEEP training for 19 physicians. Go Doc Go was presented with a special award recognizing our efforts in cervical cancer prevention in Senegal.
We will return to Senegal for the Octobre Rose cancer screening campaign from October 1-8.
Tambacounda Hospital 2022
The new Tambacounda Hospital is officially open! This beautiful design by Manual Herz was funded by our partner, Le Korsa and is a much needed addition for pediatrics and maternity.
Dr. Matt Lewis filmed this wonderful video explaining what services Go Doc Go provides and why the need for cervical cancer screenings is so great in underdeveloped countries.
He shot most of the live footage during our April 2019 trip to Ethiopia when Go Doc Go brought thermocoagulation units to hospitals in both Adama and Gondar.
Go Doc Go is so fortunate to team with many amazing partners in the fight to prevent cervical cancer around the world.
