The Us doctor who survived Ebola after contracting it in Liberia in July, 2014, has returned to work in Fort Worth, Texas.
Dr. Kent Brantly began quietly practicing medicine in the United States around a year ago. He sees patients at a community health clinic, teaches family medicine residents and works one day a week in labor and delivery at John Peter Smith Hospital, according to the Star Telegram in Fort Worth.
Brantly says his experience in Liberia has helped shaped him into the man and doctor he is today.
“There are innumerable lessons we could draw from that experience,” Brantly told the newspaper.
