Several internships, from one to three years, are also open for recent graduates.For women to whom the experience of Dr. Susie Rijnhart, of Thibet, appeals, there are great fields entirely unoccupied, while for experienced surgeons there are hospitals waiting.All this work is under the missionary societies of the various Protestant churches of the United States and Canada.The Work requires men and women of good health and rugged constitution, not over 35 years of age, graduates of first-class medical schools
