This ethnography shows how the struggle to practice clinical medicine in a resource-strapped public hospital in Papua New Guinea is complicated by the attempts of doctors, nurses, and patients to make themselves visible to othersâ kin, clinical experts, global scientists, politicians, and international development workersâ as socially recognizable and valuable persons.
