1st Community Exposure

MARCH 24 - APRIL 21, 2022

With the observance of the Covid-19 Protocol, we were carefully deployed to our assigned Community in Ipil, Zamboanga Sibugay, at the end of the 1st Semester of our 1st year in the Medical School. To complete our four-week exposure, the group was divided into 3 pairs going to the community weekly; and at the last week, our boys decided to stay the two-week duration in a trio.

February 15 - March 15, 2023

In our most recent exposure, only the six of us were left. Though we were with heavy hearts to lose one of our most valued member, our leader (Rogelle); our journey still must continue. In all our activities, our "master" is always in our hearts and mind. This one's for you, Kuya! ❤︎
