Mile Bluff is known for having medical experts who care for you close to
home. Brad Ingraham, PA-C recently expanded his ‘service area’
by traveling to Uganda on a medical mission trip.
Working with Operation Renewed Hope, Brad joined a diverse team of 41 volunteers
to provide healthcare services to people in Uganda. “We held four
very busy clinic days,” recalled Brad. “The first two days
were in very rural village areas of western Uganda; and the last two were
in southern Uganda on the Tanzania border.”
“We helped treat many different illnesses and conditions,”
explained Brad. “We gave away hundreds of eyeglasses, provided fluoride
applications for children, pulled teeth, treated many infections, performed
minor surgical procedures, and addressed various women’s health
issues. When needed, we also made arrangements for transportation, and
gave direction for more extensive care at regional hospitals.”
Mile Bluff’s staff commends Brad for his dedication to serving others,
whether it’s at Elroy Family Medical Center where you can usually
find him, or halfway across the world!
