About Us
I have lived here on the North Coast of Honduras since Jan 2001. I am a semi-retired US internist who decided to come here to work with the very poor.
I am single; a Honduran family, Alberto & Vilma Zuniga Hernandez and their son, David Alberto, born in Nov 2002 live with me.
I am not a missionary. The only qualification for a person to be seen by me is that they be “concerned about their health or that of a family member.” (They do not even need to be sick!)
I provide services “gratis.” Patients who “can pay,” pay for ONLY my “out of pocket” expenses for their meds.
Since I work in the same group of small villages each week, I have become quite able, with the help of another independent community development worker, Peter Johnson, to determine those who cannot. Those medicines are provided free.
