Dominican Republic Jun 15 - 23, 2024 w/Dr. Rick Boden and Nate Benard SR1656
This trip is now closed. Please peruse our other trips here.
We welcome physicians, dentists, pharmacists, dermatologists, optometrists, ophthalmologists, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, first responders, dental hygienists, dental assistants, physical/occupational therapists, students, servants (non-medical helpers), and a trip photographer/videographer on all of our general medicine and dentistry trips.
We will be working with our in-country partners of the Dominican Republic, Oasis church, who will provide security, transportation, interpreters, and generally see to our needs as a team. Each caregiver will have their own interpreter, as well as those in triage and the pharmacy.
We will be serving the least, the lost, and the last - Haitians who are effectively slaves to the sugar cane corporations in the Dominican Republic. We will be bringing them love and care and the hope of the Gospel. We encourage medical students to join us on this trip. This is a fantastic opportunity to mentor a medical student as well.
Our team will stay at a secure hotel with multiple persons (single sex) to a room with a bathroom in each room. Food is safe and plentiful. Bottled water is provided to all team members at all times. We value the team bonding time. Saturday will be set aside for a day of sightseeing in the DR before returning home on Sunday.
Please consider joining us to minister to these amazing people and seeing what God is going to do!
Rick Boden, MD is the Team Leader.
