Medical Internship Program

Learn by serving. Heal by connecting.

04 HOSPITALS

Step into real-world care environments

Outreach Vietnam’s Medical Internship is designed exclusively for those pursuing or practicing in the medical field — including medical students, nurses, and doctors. Interns are placed in hospitals, where they observe procedures, assist with basic tasks, and support patients with empathy and professionalism. This is more than clinical exposure — it’s a chance to grow through service, deepen your understanding of patient care, and make a meaningful impact in underserved communities.

We’re currently working at 4 different hospitals:

Hoàn Mỹ Sài Gòn Hospital
Thống Nhất Hospital
1A Hospital
Le Van Thinh Hospital
