Abstract

The objective was to describe the experiences of one gynecologic oncologist in Mongolia. Gynecologic oncologists can contribute to the health of women in developing countries through education of the health care team and research into novel ways to deliver health care. Partnering with our colleagues in developing countries is a personally enriching experience. The development of gynecologic cancer care must ultimately be culturally relevant.
