"We built a hospital in a house": An MSF medic returns from Syria
War has taken a heavy toll on the people of Syria. Since 2011, 14 million Syrians have had to flee the violence that wracked the country.
They left behind their homes and livelihoods. Essential infrastructure has been destroyed, and many Syrians have been plunged into poverty, with very limited access to essential services like medical care.
But late last year, the situation shifted, and MSF teams were able to travel to areas that had previously been inaccessible.
In this episode of Everyday Emergency, we speak to Dr Ryan McHenry, an emergency medicine doctor who recently returned from Syria.
He joins us to share his experiences in a country emerging from the shadows of war.
