Peter writes: “As a physician, I am passionate about international medical education and plan to spend my medical career training physicians in Africa. Connecting with those who share this interest and networking to find possibilities for partnership will be an important part of providing up-to-date, evidence-based medical training.

As a husband and father, I work hard to balance a demanding career in medicine with the beautiful family God has provided for me. My wife, Angela, holds a master of education degree, with which she plans to train teachers in Africa. She also coordinates much of our medical mission activity through our family blog.

Our mission is to glorify God by loving and serving patients and their families and discipling those around us. We recognize His influence in our relationships, activities, and daily lives. We believe that He is the one guiding our journey and plan to serve Him with the best of what He’s provided our family.”
