'Top-notch' care eludes Afghan hospital

Dr. Jean Amoura, an ob/gyn, was part of a University of Nebraska Medical Center team that visited Rabia Balkhi for four days in December 2004 to provide continuing education separate from the U.S. government training program. Amoura said she was disturbed by the physical condition of the hospital and questioned how it would be possible for its Afghan attending physicians to serve as trainers for young resident doctors, a key element of the U.S. program. .
