Dr. Pannala teaching childbirth/pregnancy


It has been an exciting week so far. Dr. Naga Pannala joined us this week. She got here in the middle of the night on sun night and started teaching Monday afternoon. She did not miss a step after her adventure with customs at the airport on arrival. She was bringing us all the stethoscopes, BP cuffs, and thermometers for the Barefoot Drs students. It took us two days and a lot of effort to get the equipment back. In the meantime, Dr. Pannala was doing a good job teaching all her scheduled classes without ever complaining. She has been a blessing to the students and I get the feeling that she feels the same way about them.
Yesterday she showed them a video clip of childbirth and an animated video on what happens internally during childbirth. The Students were amazed! It turns out only a few of them had ever seen childbirth. They were literally on the edge of their seats.
