Review for Wuqu' Kawoq | Maya Health Alliance, Barrio Patacabaj, Tecpán, , Guatemala
As you can see with all the other glowing reviews, WK does terrific medical and public health work in some of the neediest areas of Guatemala by placing a high value on linguistic competence and respect for the patients they serve. These reviews also show one of their other great strengths-- building a coalition of smart people who care deeply about providing quality care to poor, indigenous, and marginalized Guatemalans. The staff, volunteers, and interns work tirelessly at tasks that can seem Sisyphean in this context, whether that be reversing the effects of chronic malnutrition, managing complex diabetes, or accompanying cancer patients through a sea of red tape. And they're able to achieve amazing results. I am constantly impressed and inspired by WK's work and plan to continue to support them forever.
