General and family practitioners, pediatricians, and obstetricians and gynecologists are the medical specializations the villages we serve request most frequently, but we do have occasional need for those with other specializations. Our work in remote areas of Mexico and Latin America often prevents us from having access to lab services or from coordinating anything more than basic patient follow-up with local providers where they exist. And the remoteness of most sites also means that in most cases, LMV clinic teams bring with them all or most of the equipment, supplies, and medications needed for a clinic.

If you are a resident or intern and would like to volunteer but lack the funds to do so, LMV will cover some or all of your trip fee, depending on clinic location, if you qualify for our Residents' Fund.

Further questions? Contact our Chief Healthcare Professional or your nearest LMV chapter.

"Of all the organizations and charities I've been associated with, LMV definitely is the most rewarding experience," Tom Hogan, volunteer
