201 Humanitarian Disasters and how MSF clinicians work in difficult environments

Dr Martin Sosa is a General Surgeon who has been deployed on multiple missions with Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors without Borders). However, over his work with MSF, he found himself in emergency situations were surgery was not the only medical specialty required. Martin is an example of the work being done by organisations, like MSF, that rapidly adapt to the immediate clinical need, in extremely difficult operational environments. I spoke with Martin about his experiences in Yemen and South Sudan shortly before his MSF deployment to Central African Republic. Dr Martin Sosa is a General Surgeon with Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors without Borders), who originally hails from Argentina. His career in relief and disaster work commenced (pre-MSF) with a deployment to Haiti following the disastrous earthquake. Since then, he was had many extended missions in locations such as Yemen and South Sudan.
