Medical Support for Oaxaca Village

Medical Volunteer Trip to San Juan Atepec, Oaxaca; Mexico

June 16th – 27th, 2018

Our good friend and amazing diabetes advocate, Dr. Miriam Padilla, has organized a medical volunteer trip to Mexico in June of this year.

San Juan Atepec is a village of 2000 people of Zapoteca heritage that is found in the northern mountains of Oaxaca.  They have a medical clinic whose one doctor, one nurse, and one dentist work extremely hard to provide the best care they can with the limited resources they have.

Those interested in volunteering should be fluent in Spanish. We are especially looking for health professionals in the following fields: Nutritionist, CDCES, Dietician, Psychologist, Psychiatry, Dermatologist, General Surgeon, Geriatrician, Pediatrician, Family Practitioner, OB, Gynecologist, Internist, Dentist, Alcohol and drug Rehab Specialist, Mental Health Therapist, Endocrinologist, Emergency Medicine Physician, NP or PA proficient in any of the above fields

Cost: $2000

If you are unable to join, we are asking for donations. Your financial support would allow them to have better access to medications, medical supplies, and educational material for patients.
