Flyingdoc
remains committed to the principles of it's Mission
. The two arms are : Sharing our Knowledge in
Emergency Medicine /Critical Care/Trauma/Disaster
Medicine/Ambulatory Medicine and Practise arm,
with working side by side in Hospitals and Clinics
of Flyingdoc India Trust Foundation with doctors
and Nurses and Paramedical personnell and supplying
much needed Medical Equipments.
The former is based on Teach-the-Trainor
approach at Teaching Institutions as in Mumbai's
K.E.M. Hospital/Seth G.S. Medical College and
and other Major Teaching Institutions . The same
is done in smaller Towns like Valsad and Kharel
and Kaprada, in conjunction with the local Chapters
of the Indian Medical Associations, as has been
done in the past with IMA of Valsad, Surat,Ankleshwar
, Bharuch and Bilimora.
The Practise arm deals with working
and staying at the Hospitals, with which Flyingdoc
has established relationships,as in Kharel Hospital(near
Navsari on N.H. 8) and Kaprada Clinic and Hospital
and Pardi Hospital's M.AS.K (Manav Arogya Seva
Kendra), between Valsad and Nasik, in the rural
and tribal belt.Such hospitals and Clinics are
in need of the very fundamentals of medical equipments,
which Flyingdoc provides from the US, carried
by it's physicians and supporters.Flyingdoc has
supported the hospitals with Respirators, Cardiac
Monitors/Defibrillators, Pulse-ox meters, Surgical
Eqmnts.,and emergency airway eqmnts. in the past.
Visiting US Physicians and Nurses stay at the
local rural Hopital on campus and work side-by-side
with their Indian counterparts and dealing with
Emergencies with staff physicians. This gives
a first hand opportunity for seeing the spectrum
of local medical and surgical pathology, within
the constraints of available Lab/X-rays/Equipments
of the hospital/clinic and an opportunity to make
a difference.Such experience creates an atmosphere
of comraderie and friendship, that lasts a Lifetime.
Established US Physicians and Interns
from US as well as pre-medical and medical students
of various US Universities , also take part in
the program and learn to understand and appreciate
the pracitse environment in small towns and villages.
We encourage you to participate with Flyingdoc
