It could be worse. You could have the only google hit worldwide for "wil wheaton naked sandwich".

I'm a medical student from New Zealand. Before she passed away last year, a dear friend of mine (of Lakota descent) and I were looking into spending several months doing medical work on a Native American reservation.

I'm not sure if this is a weird question, but - can you tell me a little about how healthcare works on the Navajo reservation? And what sort health issues do you feel are common there, and are there any you know of that need particular focus?

cheers.

Thank you both - sorry with the time difference I can't write back more substantially because I'm at work at the moment.

It was a little eyebrow-raising to see the healthcare service still using the 'Indian' label :)
