A great day with Elham, from Servas Egypt! Elham is an eye doctor who just opened her own private clinic in El-Abaseya. She even gave me a surprise eye check. And as it turns out my US doctor’s prescription might be just a little bit too strong. I visited an optometrist for my glasses, and in Egypt that occupation does not exist. You must have an MD. So, anyone looking for a new eye doctor, come on over to Egypt!  Elham’s clinic is conveniently located just outside of the Abdou Pasha metro station.

Behind the doctor’s chair. I look quite content. Is it too late to apply for med school?
