Whether you're a university hopeful, studying for a degree in medicine, or a qualified medical practitioner we can find an overseas placement in Medicine to suit your experience and interests.

Volunteering on a Medicine project in a developing country is a fantastic and rewarding experience and is also a great addition to your CV or university application.

The role of volunteers varies by the destination, but is adjusted to your previous experience. Pre-university volunteers help out in simple but practical ways, and will be able to learn through shadowing doctors and nurses. Medical students are often given somewhat more responsibility, and may take a more active role in patient care (depending on experience).

We also welcome volunteers with professional qualifications and experience. We offer placements in a number of destinations where you will be able to put your training to the best use, through assisting in the treatment of patients and by sharing your knowledge and expertise with the local staff. Please get in touch with us directly to discuss the options.
