Abstract:
Culture influences the ways in which people perceive and deal with health. While much research has focused on culture in relation to patients, much less is known about how the culture of health care providers affects their professional work. This study explores cultural health beliefs of Maroon health care providers in the district of Brokopondo, Suriname, and their effect on health care delivery.
