FALL 2024
Go Doc Go just returned from a busy trip to Senegal last week that kicked off the Octobre Rose cervical cancer screening campaign throughout the country.
Our team worked in 5 locations throughout Senegal and donated 5 thermal ablation units and 3 LEEP devices. We also donated two additional thermal ablation devices to the SSCPP - The Senegalese Society of Colposcopy and Papillomavirus Pathology - to be donated during their screening caravan next month.
In total, 14 physicians were trained on using the LEEP machines we donated and 81 midwives were trained on how to screen for cervical cancer and treat lesions with thermal ablation.
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.
