Medical Internships Abroad
When it comes to getting a meaningful and memorable medical work experience abroad, the mentorship and structure of the program really matter.
Our Healthcare Internship programs are customized to suit your objectives and interest areas as well as your university requirements providing you with hands-on experience and clinical exposure under supervision and mentorship.
The Programs are suited for all levels of experience and qualifications whether you are a Pre-Health Student, Healthcare Student, a New Doctor or a practicing professional. They will expose you to a health system that is different from that of your home country, with different diseases, different treatment methods and diversity of culture.
Our International medical internship in Africa will: 1) Improve your clinical skills and clinical knowledge through the shadowing and guided learning activities 2) Give you intensive exposure to various healthcare specialties depending on your interest; 3) Challenge your critical thinking ability; learning to be innovative and resourceful; 4) Give you an opportunity to witness unique conditions that you have only read in books such as tropical diseases and 5) Improve your communication and interpersonal relations through the interaction with the fellow students and other healthcare staff in the hospitals.

In the words of our participants
An Incredible Learning Experience
My four weeks at Mt.Meru Regional Hospital OBS&GYN Department have been an incredible learning experience.The doctors and staff have been welcoming and willing to teach.The department is extremely busy and there lots of opportunities for hands on including deliveries. Where Elective Africa really shines is with their program Coordinators. Our Coordinator in Arusha has been outstanding. He has gone above and beyond to make our experience here unforgettable. I would recommend EA to any Senior Medical Student looking to do an elective abroad.
A Once in a Lifetime Journey
After spending 3.5 weeks with Elective Africa’s program, I am certain that medicine is the path for my future. Volunteering in the Health Centre as a pre-medical student allowed me many clinical opportunities that I would not be able to have in the States. The comparisons that I was able to make between medicine and healthcare versus the United States will serve me well in my future studies, practice, and medical experiences. Thank you so much, Elective Africa, for this once-in-a-lifetime journey! Asante sana!
A Life-changing and Enriching Experience
My experience in Mombasa, Kenya has been life changing and enriching. The people are the friendliest and I've made life long friends. Elective Africa is a true professional organisation with well established and respected contacts at Coast Provincial General Hospital. They take care of us so we can focus on the medical,cultural and social experience while living, playing and working in Kenya. I wish I could have stayed longer but I will bring back with me invaluable life lessons, skills and memories !
