Travel As A Group On
Your Elective Placement
Combining hospital placements, culture and exploration
Medical group trips
Working alongside local medical professionals you will gain invaluable experience that allows you to see first hand the health care system in a developing country. Whether you are carrying out your medical elective or are just simply interested in medicine, our diverse and unique medical experiences will see you confronting different illnesses and treatments, discovering new techniques and methods and to observe how teams work together in often resource stretched settings.
Each of our medical experience programmes encompass many key areas, with most projects being based in large government hospitals. Here you are able to gain exposure in several departments or to focus your placement within your chosen field.
We host many university students on their elective placements each and every year. Over the last few years we have built up strong relationships with many universities around the United Kingdom and abroad, with many now actively recommending us to their students. We are able to complete any paperwork required from your university and can ensure that your course requirements are met in terms of minimum hours, placement setting and more.
