Egypt's 79-year-old doctor treats the poor all his life, charging no more than $50 each time
Mohammed Micheli, 79, is known as "the poor man's doctor". He has devoted 44 years to the treatment of vulnerable groups. A visit to his clinic will not exceed 10 Egyptian pounds (equivalent to 50 cents). For Shirley, a doctor is a humane profession, not a commercial one, and sees treating the poor as his greatest achievement, and still hopes to treat as many poor people as possible.
He said: "I am good at treating epidemics, fever caused by schistosomiasis and febrile diseases, these are diseases that the poor can easily get, and these families cannot afford the expensive treatment. When they go to public hospitals, they usually find that out of Due to uncontrollable factors of where to work and colleagues, medical resources are scarce.
