Sarah Ansah
Sarah Ansah is a 38-year-old woman who takes care of 9 children. For income, Sarah sells fruit in her community. The University of California Davis Medical Brigade met Sarah and found out that she underwent a vasectomy in 2010 and has since developed an incisional hernia. This hernia has reached a large size and has become a physical and financial burden to her family. She does not make enough money to continue care outside of the Brigade Clinic. She is interested in addressing her clinical situation with the hopes of reducing her hernia completely.
Recently, Sarah has attended pre-surgical consulations at Korle Bu Hospital in Accra and is scheduled to have the surgery this December
of 2013.
