This year Dr. Peter Loewinthan brought down a much larger medical delegation from the Dorchester House Multi Service Center than in previous years. A total of 11 doctors, two nurse practitioners and two nursing assistants visited over three weeks, seeing around 1000 children and about 1200 adults. The group also held workshops to exchange experiences with local health workers in various municipalities of the department of Estelí.
