ECU med student shares stories of tsunami-ravaged Japan
ECU medical student and Brody Scholar Scott Gremillion was published in “Family Physician, Quarterly News in North Carolina Family Medicine.”
The article, “Bearing Witness: A Family Medicine Scholar Travels to Tsunami-Ravaged Japan on a Journey of Help, Hope and Caring,” details Gremillion’s experiences in Japan following the 2011 earthquake and tsunami.
In a 2012 visit, Gremillion noted an ongoing struggle to recover from the effects of the disaster. “The physical, emotional and psychological scars…were taking longer to clear than the debris on the city streets,” he said in the article.
