After a roller coaster week of decision making and interviews, I am terribly excited to report that we have hired a doctor for the MOHI clinic. Dr. Miche Lavaud was born in Haiti and educated in Haiti and the Dominican Republic as a physician and an ultrasoud technician. He has several years experience working in both countries in hospital settings and speaks Kreyol, English, French and Spanish.
Part of the vision of the MOHI clinic involves working respectfully within existing health systems in Haiti. Among the assets that Dr. Lavaud brings to the table is several years experience working in Grand Goave's local hospital. Dr. Lavaud's experience and connections open doors for our clinic to expand our level of care and assist our patients in further fulfilling their healthcare needs. Today was his first day on the job and he is already setting up personal appointments with patients to help them get needed surgeries. Welcome to the team Dr. Lavaud!
