MSF's medical work

As a medical organisation we constantly strive to provide the most effective healthcare possible for our patients. Our medical work includes a huge range of medical activities, from organising basic vaccination campaigns to carrying out reconstructive facial surgery.

Our medical staff provide essential healthcare during and after conflict, treat people affected by epidemic diseases, help people survive natural disasters and offer medical care to those excluded from healthcare.

MSF also advocates for affordable, high quality medicines for the world's poorest people.

Field Research

MSF is known for its humanitarian medical work, but we have also produced important research based on its field experience.

MSF has published articles in over 100 peer-reviewed journals and they have often changed clinical practice and been used for humanitarian advocacy.
