Surgical Adventures in Chitokoloki Mission Hospital

Situated in the North-Western Province of Zambia, the Chitokoloki Mission Hospital stands as a remote yet remarkable facility. This book is a compilation of daily reports that offer a glimpse into the life of a remote African mission hospital, written from a personal and clinical perspective with a surgical emphasis, as this formed the bulk of the recorded activity.

The detailed experiences of numerous patients have been captured, and the author conveys the almost unbelievable reality that their experiences reflect. Initially, these reports were part of a flowing clinical news blog, but they have been assembled into a book form to include the Christian context as well as insights into the daily life of the surrounding villages.

Time and again, these stories have been the focus of discussion and enquiry, and it has been a rewarding experience to share these experiences with others. As a result, those who become aware of the hospital's work are inspired to pray, support, give, and even visit, in order to contribute to the mission's efforts in some way.

The book's narrative not only highlights the clinical and surgical aspects of the hospital's operations but also delves into the intricate cultural and spiritual dimensions that shape the lives of the local community. Readers are taken on a journey that encompasses the challenges, triumphs, and profound human connections that are woven into the fabric of this remote yet vital healthcare institution.

Through the author's vivid descriptions and insights, readers are transported to the heart of the Chitokoloki Mission Hospital, where they bear witness to the resilience, compassion, and unwavering dedication of the medical staff and the community they serve. This book serves as a powerful testament to the transformative impact that a remote but remarkable facility can have on the lives of those it touches, both in the present and for generations to come.
