Our Actions in Madagascar
Médicaero’s medical teams, which include general practitioners and numerous specialists (ophthalmologists, gynecologists, cardiologists, dermatologists…), travel 5 times a year to the most remote areas of the TOLIARA province, in the south of the island. Each mission is prepared with local healthcare providers to address the population’s needs, with a long-term health approach.
