EDITORS COMMENTS
An Operation at Yezd Hospital, Iran: A Scene of Compassion and Healing (1907) This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment in the history of medical missions in Iran. The image, taken at Yezd Hospital in the central Iranian city of Yezd, depicts a dedicated team of missionary surgeons at work in the operating theatre. The hospital, established by the Medical Mission Auxiliary (MMA) of London, was a beacon of hope and healing for the local community during a time when access to modern medical care was limited. The scene is set around a surgical bench, where an Iranian patient lies on an operating table, surrounded by a team of medical professionals. The surgeon, with a focused expression, performs the operation, while a nurse assists, holding instruments and providing support. The room is filled with a sense of purpose and determination, as the team works together to save lives. The presence of the MMA in Iran was a testament to the humanitarian spirit of the time. Christian missionaries, driven by a desire to help those in need, traveled great distances to bring modern medical care to remote and underserved communities. The establishment of hospitals like Yezd was a significant step towards improving the health and wellbeing of the local population. The photograph, produced by Mary Evans Prints Online, is a poignant reminder of the transformative impact of medical missions on the lives of people in Iran and beyond. It also highlights the enduring legacy of the MMA and its commitment to providing essential healthcare services to those in need, irrespective of race, religion, or nationality.
