Albert Schweitzer cared a lot for the poor people in Africa. He studied medicine so that he could help the sick people in that country. Unlike in America and Europe, there were very few doctors in Africa.
Dr Schweitzer gave up his comfortable life which his fortune had brought him and worked in Africa. Initially, the natives were cautious of him as he was a while. When they understood that Dr Schweitzer was there to help them, they assisted him to build a small hospital. His patients travelled far to consult him about their illnesses. As Dr Schweitzer was the only doctor in that part of Africa, he worked day and night. Besides treating the sick, he also taught people how to help one another.
Dr Schweitzer's great work of practising medicine in Africa encouraged other doctors and nurses to work in Africa.
