Medical Electives in Sri Lanka - Kandy Reviews

"I encountered many patients with conditions that are less common in Switzerland. I saw a patient with leptospirosis, a child injured by a falling coconut and many instances of RTA's."

"From start to finish, every member of the Work the World team was terrific."

"I observed lots of memorable cases across the many departments I had a chance to experience."

"It was reassuring to know I would meet other healthcare students and not have to stress about where to stay or what to eat."

"The placement was so well organised, and everyone was so friendly - I would really recommend it!"

"Booking my overseas placement with Work the World was the best decision I could have ever made."

"I undertook ward rounds with the consultant and assisted with examining patients. I spent time in the scanning room with one of the registrars, who explained a lot to me".

"Doctors are so revered in Sri Lankan culture that patients rarely speak against them or challenge them."

"My time in the hospital was really interesting. The saying ‘you only get out of it what you put into it’ could not be more accurate. I had the four best weeks of my life."
