Medicine Internships in Chiang Mai

The project was far beyond what I had expected. I spent three weeks in the department of cardiology of Somdech Phra Pinklao Hospital in Bangkok. On the first day I received a thorough schedule of what I was going to see and learn in the next weeks, but the best part was the team: they gave me a kind and hearty welcome and everyone was very nice and willing to share with me everything they could and wanted about both cardiology and Thai culture. The clinical part of the internship was in English and, as I don't come from an English speaking country, I had to get familiar with a different terminology, which was challenging for the first few days, but at the same time it was the most useful thing I got from this internship for my future medical career and what I am most thankful for. Living in such a wonderful and different city like Bangkok is truly a life changing experience. I needed a great open-mindedness to live this experience, but since diversity and uniqueness are two of the thing I love the most, it wasn't difficult for Bangkok and Thai culture to find a place among my best and beloved memories.

LoveVolunteers with their partner did an excellent job on making sure everything goes by smoothly. They answered all my questions quickly and I was satisfied with their replies. My accommodation in Bangkok exceeded my expectations. Everything is clean and was a more westernize house. The staff there made sure we were okay and showed us around Bangkok. On the other hand, my internship at a Hospital University was amazing. I spent my time at the OBYGYN department where I get to be in the labour room and operating room. The doctors and medical students were really friendly and made the initiative to explain things in English. This is definitely worth the long flight and I will never forget this.
