Learning from the Zuni BY Jessica Rollin n PHOTOS BY Jessica and Francois Rollin
Francois and I met my first year of medical school at Emory. He was doing his MPH in between his third and fourth year. We spent a week in Haiti together providing medical care to people who otherwise would not get it. We did the same thing the following year, and Francois went again as an attending physician after he had graduated. We both loved that experience and knew that providing care to the underserved was a passion for us. After graduating, we decided to pursue jobs through the Indian Health Service because we wanted to provide medical care in a new, challenging setting and in an environment that was far away from the pressures and demands of urban, academic medicine. We wanted to have an adventure and explore a brand new side of medicine.
