Cambodia Medical and Surgical Relief

The United Nations Millennium Project proclaimed that only 13 percent of the country visited health facilities last year, and 22.9 percent of children die before the age of 5. Treatable diseases like malaria, intestinal parasites, cholera, diarrhea, tuberculosis, as well as vaccine-preventable diseases such as measles, are endemic and claim lives everyday.
We will be providing a surgical team to a large hospital in addition to our general family practice clinics. We will be working with the poorest Cambodians along the Thailand border; these Cambodians have no current access to the health system.
