Panama Volunteer Placement

This local clinic provides general physician services, as well as blood tests and gynecological and pediatric treatment. Open during mornings, the clinic attracts mothers and their children, who take advantage of the pediatricians available.
Due to strict medical regulations in Panama, volunteers will not be able to directly treat patients, so the majority of the work will be observational. Participants will learn a great deal about tropical diseases through this placement.
