“No one is turned away for lack of means. That promise is only possible because neighbors show up for one another, week after week.”
Dr. Eugene Cheslock · Founder & Volunteer Physician

For licensed clinicians
What clinicians usually ask
Do I need an active medical license?
Yes. Clinical volunteers need an active license in the State of New Jersey.
Do I need to carry malpractice insurance?
No. The clinic covers all licensed independent practitioners under the Federal Tort Claims Act. Learn more.
How much time is required?
