Flying Medical Service operates 2 Cessna 206s.
An old picture: I had been stranded in a Masai village, Pininyi on lake Natron shores. The problem was a jammed starter. Pat Patten, the manager-founder, had come to rescue me with a new starter. A night in a Masai village can be interesting.

Babies receive their drop of polio.
A nice ‘medical’ hut in the Rift valley.
An airstrip near an active volcano named Lengai.
In this place, Oleparkashi, the clinic takes place under the wing. Notice the scale hanging from the wing.
A man goes home, probably quite disappointed. Nothing we can do for his elephantiasis on the legs.
Patiently waiting for the doctor.
Another hut, a different view of the volcano Lengai.
The last 2 pictures were shot on slide film with my lovely Rolleiflex.
