The India Medical Outreach Program is geared towards the healthcare needs of thousands of underprivileged tribal people of surrounding areas of Gujarat, India. Students, faculty, physicians, dentists, staff and volunteers from the community give their time and talent to provide medical care that would otherwise be unavailable due to the significant shortage of healthcare professionals.
