Dr. Lori Stolz's interest in global health started well before medical school during a half-year break from college in which she lived and worked in an orphanage for HIV positive children outside of Nairobi. Through this trip, she knew she was destined to become a physician and that she would always work with resource-limited communities in some capacity.
Following residency, she began volunteering with the nonprofit, Global Emergency Care (GEC), training providers to deliver quality emergency care in rural Uganda. What she loves most about her work is the ability to participate in a sustainable, scalable program that partners effectively with local communities.
Since completing her ultrasound fellowship at the University of Arizona, she has become the co-director for Ultrasound for GEC and continues to volunteer with them regularly. She serves as the Secretary for the Global Health Interest Group for the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine and is the Director of Ultrasound for the Department of Emergency Medicine at the University of Cincinnati.
