Trust is paper first, relationship second.
The physicians we are recruiting are volunteers from the diaspora. Before a volunteer physician advises a patient at our health centres, we plan to verify the license, the DEA registration, the board certification and the malpractice coverage, and make a peer reference call. No exceptions, no shortcuts.
