A humanitarian clinic “ Dr Uzeir Skaka” opened in Sarajevo settlement Bistrik where doctors will voluntarily offer health care services to all the uninsured and unemployed persons.
“Our wish to offer our services in a completely simple, easy and acceptable manner to everyone who is unable to receive medical attention the way everyone else does, has finally come true. Accordingly, we have opened the first BIMA humanitarian clinic “Dr Uzeir Skaka” in Sarajevo and we hope that we will not stop at this,” said Professor Faris Foco, Head of the BIMA Medical Association.
They say they will offer their services to the migrants who are mostly residing in the close vicinity of the clinic.
“The medical association BIMA has already helped the migrants in Serbia in 2015 when we worked in cooperation with other organizations in six locations in Serbia. If we were to provide our services to persons coming from abroad, they are always welcome in our outpatient clinic. We have already made certain contacts and we are ready to receive new patients,” says Hasan Mrkonja, Secretary of the medical association BIMA.
Among the volunteers are the students who will become doctors within a month.
“We really enjoy what we do, we travel across the country, we visit the people, which is a very special feeling and makes it all worth it,” said Nejra Gondzetovic, a volunteer at BIMA.
