A letter from our medical staff

Why Saipan?

Saipan is a very special place to practice medicine.

Patients here are complex, and they are deeply appreciative of the care they receive. Our hospital and clinic staff are U.S.-trained. The medical staff is supportive: on hard days, people show up for one another and for this community.

The work has the satisfaction of global health, while you are still practicing in the United States, earning a U.S. salary and benefits. There is a tremendous amount of professional satisfaction here. For many of us, it has been an antidote to the burnout so common in modern medical practice.

On top of all that, it is a wonderful place to live: a tropical paradise under the U.S. flag.

If that sounds like the path you have been looking for, we would like to hear from you.

“Every path is one of a million paths. Every path is only a path, and there is no affront, to oneself or to others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you to do. Look at each path slowly and deliberately. Try it as many times as you feel necessary. Then ask yourself, and yourself alone, one question: ‘Does this path have a heart?’ If it does, the path is a good one. If it doesn't, it is of no use.”Carlos Castaneda
