Los Médicos Voladores (LMV), The Flying Doctors, is a registered 501(c)(3) Medical Mission Non-Governmental Organization(NGO) based in California, USA. LMV provides pop-up/mobile medical & dental clinics in California, Mexico, Haiti, El Salvador / Latin America, or other areas requesting assistance.
LMV offers short-term assignments for volunteer medical professionals, healthcare support professionals, dental professionals, students, pilots, Spanish-language translators, and non-medical volunteers to conduct free medical and dental clinics that provide health care and education in areas where such services are limited or difficult to obtain.
- LMV makes all arrangements for our volunteers upon arrival to our international destination, including transportation, lodging/meals, government permits, and clinic logistics.
- We secure equipment, supplies, and medicines through partnerships with health and development organizations.
- We provide our services without compensation or discrimination based on race, religion, creed, or political affiliation.
During the LMV clinics, we partner with local medical and dental professionals to provide care and share knowledge about diagnoses and treatment. We also provide community health education so that local people are encouraged to meet their health care needs based on knowledge and education.
