Can I Do Missions if I Can't Go?
Episode # 101
Host Bill Reichart talks to Dr. Tram Jones about a calling to missions and medicine in Haiti and how the unrest has reset his service abroad.
Tram Jones, MD completed his medical school and internal medicine residency at Emory University. After graduation, he and his wife lived in Croix-des-Bouquets, Haiti, working at an outpatient clinic. Since returning to the United States in late 2021, he has continued seeing his patients in Haiti via a telemedicine link. He also serves as inpatient faculty for the internal medicine residency program at Piedmont Athens Regional and as an associate clinical professor at Augusta University.
Over the last two years Tram has expanded telemedicine access to clinics in Cite Soleil, Haiti and Freetown, Sierra Leone. His residents and other physicians see patients across the world in real time. With three sites currently working, he leads global health education for his residency program.
