Our Team.
At Elective Abroad, we are more than just coordinators—we are doctors who have been in your shoes. We know firsthand what makes an elective abroad truly valuable, because we’ve experienced it ourselves. That’s why we created Elective Abroad—to offer placements that go beyond just observation, immersing students in real-world clinical settings where they can gain hands-on experience, critical skills, and a deeper understanding of global healthcare.
This may be your first overseas elective, but it’s not ours. With our medical expertise and global healthcare connections, we have carefully designed each program to provide unparalleled clinical exposure, meaningful patient interactions, and an experience that will shape you into a more confident and capable healthcare professional.
We know what you really want from an elective—because we’ve been there. And with Elective Abroad, you’ll be in the hands of professionals who understand exactly what it takes to make your placement extraordinary.
