(Note: Currently, our greatest need is a new ambulance/car for transporting patients, doctors, and nurses in Thomassique, Haiti.  Please help us reacch our $50,000 goal: http://www.mightycause.com/story/Buy-An-Ambulance-For-Haiti.)

Medical Missionaries, a 501(c)(3) company, is a volunteer group of more than 200 doctors, nurses, dentists, and others who work to improve the health of the poorest of the poor in the U.S. and throughout the world. We provide medical care and medical supplies, clothing and food to the areas we serve. 

One area of focus has been along the Haiti-Dominican Republic border. In Thomassique, Haiti, we have built and support a clinic (hospital), the first medical facility in this region of more than 125,000 people. We also work with the local residents to provide other health-related projects.

Until 2006, the residents of Thomassique, Haiti, had no permanent medical facility.  In that year, Medical Missionaries built a state-of-the-art clinic (hospital).  St. Joseph's Clinic is staffed by 30 Haitian medical professionals and support staff.  They serve between 100 and 150 patients each day and facilitate between 40 and 60 births each month.  Teams of doctors and nurses from the U.S. visit the clinic several times each year to assist with special procedures and to provide professional development for the Haitian staff.
