Mobile clinics treat reproductive cancers in along Ukraine ’s contact line

POPASNA, Ukraine –“I just hope it’s not cancer,” Valentina, 71, recalled thinking when she visited a mobile clinic in Ukraine last year.She had been suffering intense pain in her pelvic area for a long time, but because her rural village in Popasna District lacked medical specialists, like gynaecologists, she had refrained from seeking care. Specialists were available in the district clinic, 10 km away, but Valentina said her poor eyesight prevented her from traveling that distance.
