Clinical Electives Abroad for Pre Med or Med

Get hands-on experience working on a medical placement in India, Nepal, Cambodia or Sri Lanka, Philippines, or Vietnam . We offer medical electives abroad to pre-med and medical students of any medical discipline, so that you can put your skills into practise, learn new skills along the way, and broaden your horizons through the power of immersive travel. 

Our medical placements designed to give you structured and supervised medical work experience to give you the edge in your particular field, but they are also designed to help you find a deeper meaning in your career and allow you to absorb a new culture and a new way of life.

Our programs are suitable for university students training to be doctors, dentists, nurses, midwives, physiotherapists or occupational therapists. With each placement, you will get the unique opportunity to get intensive learning in a completely different setting. Whilst your skills may be universal, healthcare and medicine varies greatly from country to country and our medical electives can open your eyes to a world you may have never experienced before.

During your time with Volunteering Journeys and our medical partners, you will have time to explore your surroundings and go sightseeing at weekends. We also encourage community living through shared accommodation and we organise breakfast and dinner in the local cuisine so you get to enjoy an authentic travel experience and live just like the locals. For a great medical volunteering and travel experience check out medical gap year program.
