Floating DoctorsA dedicated crew on a 12-month medical relief voyage to the coast of Central America and the Eastern Pacific aboard their 76’ sailboat, the Southern Wind. The team will set up mobile tented medical clinics ashore, providing free healthcare and preventative medicine to developing world coastal communities. In each country, Dr. La Brot and the crew will use a unique combination of traditional medicine and cutting-edge technology to provide preventative medicine and health education to over 15,000 patients, as well as coordinating a network of visiting physicians and medical students from around the world. Dr. La Brot and his team will face challenges both on the seas and on shore in tackling current problems and reducing the future burden of disease—their determination, compassion and work ethic will encourage others to stand up and join team “Floating Doctors." |
