The hospital is a great place to experience medicine in an African setting.
Dom, a medical student from Australia wrote “- I would thoroughly recommend the elective. It was a life changing experience and I think Kagando Hospital is the perfect environment to have your elective placement. The learning, the unforgettable cases, the generous staff, wonderful and welcoming people are all a part of this invaluable experience. “
The hospital is in a beautiful setting – you can see the Rwenzori mountains over the valley. There are wonderful opportunities to visit game parks to see wildlife – the nearest is the Queen Elizabeth National Park about half an hour away.
Students of Medicine, Nursing, Midwifery, Physiotherapy and allied professions are all welcome at Kagando.
