Stony Brook University Medical Internship to Dominican Republic, June 2025

Tenzin's Message

I’m thrilled to have been accepted into a medical internship that will give me invaluable hands-on experience in healthcare. It’s a huge step toward my goal of becoming a skilled healthcare professional and making a real difference in people’s lives. Preparing for this opportunity has been a journey, and I couldn’t have made it this far without the support and encouragement of my community. By supporting this effort, you're helping to invest in the future of healthcare and the well-being of those we aim to serve.

Volunteer Activity Description

Join the Stony Brook University chapter as they lead a Medical Outreach Internship to the Dominican Republic this upcoming Summer! interns will work in mobile medical clinics, where they will have the opportunity to intake patients, conduct public health surveys, take vitals, shadow local physicians, work in the pharmacy, teach education classes, and much more! If you’re interested in joining, contact us for more information!

VAW Global at Stony Brook University will be opening up mobile medical clinics for local communities during their time in the Dominican Republic.

One of the most exciting and important parts of interning with VAW Global is bringing medication to the less fortunate. In 2023, VAW Global treated over 17,500 patients and we aspire to treat over 20,000 in 2024! One of the things that make our mobile clinics unique is that we not only triage and diagnose patients, but also provide them with the basic medications needed. Fundraising for medications is a huge part of creating a successful mobile clinic to help the local communities with effective care.
