Survivor from Mamre

A 22-year-old woman, who wished to remain anonymous, said that she received immediate care after her rape, but that medical staff did not treat her for an infection that was likely a result of the attack. She reported that she had to wait one year before she could get treatment from another provider.

She also said she had initially been assigned a counselor she knew personally, which made her uncomfortable, and when she finally received a replacement, the new counselor did not respond to her.

“To this day I will send my counsellor messages because I have to make an appointment with her… and she will not respond.”
