Cerca Abroad

Hi, my name is Cayley Harris and I am from Alabama. I go to school at the University of Alabama. I chose this program to be able to compare the differences between a private hospital in Greece and a private or even public hospitals in the US, just to see what is different and how everyone work together in a hospital. Also, being in a foreign country and being able to adjust to learn new things. I’ve been here for four weeks. This is my fourth week here. I got to be in cardiology and surgery and this week I was in MOR scans. I think it was fun and interesting to learn different stuff here compared to the US. I’ve been able to go around Athens and explore the city. So this internship in a foreign country is in your list, I would say do it.

Hi, my name is David, I come from San Diego, California. I go to school at San Diego State University. I am on a kinesiology major there, so our specific college requires of us to go on a study abroad program at some point of our career as post graduates, so that’s why I chose this specific program and to come to Greece. My experience so far has been really nice. I’ve been here for two weeks. So in my first week I got into kinesiotherapy and the OR. That has been an amazing experience as well. It’s something I wouldn’t have been able to do or experience back in the States. Greece and specifically Athens where I am right now, is a really nice city, very cheap. People are really friendly and helpful. Definitely got to see a lot places. The people are cool, the team here is also great, very responsive and very helpful. Any questions you have they would answer almost immediately. So, I definitely would recommend that you apply to this program.

Hi, I am Mia Houston, I am from Missouri and go to Missouri State University on a premed, hoping to get myself a neurobiology major. I found this program through girls that were already planning on doing it, and I am so lucky that they’ve told me about it. I’ve actually loved being in Greece so far. I’ve been here for a week and I have one more left. So, I got time to explore, get back to the hospital and have the opportunity to see other specialties that I wouldn’t have originally planned for myself. That really helps me to become a grounded doctor, seeing how a hospital works in every aspect of it. So this is just an amazing opportunity and I would definitely recommend it.
