In MSF we are searching for

Doctors
The work our doctors do is the backbone of MSF’s action. Their task is to meet the medical needs of the population, by providing direct care of patients and training and supervision of local staff.
Anaesthetists
To work with us as an anaesthetist, you must be flexible enough to work in isolated contexts and with other staff who often have little training. In addition to working in the operating room, anaesthetists are responsible for studying the surgical needs, following up patients and training national staff.
Surgeons
Surgeons are increasingly in demand in MSF projects. Resources in operating rooms can be limited (in some cases there is not even an x-ray machine) and many of the operations we perform are on patients who have been victims of armed conflict and of violence , although we also work in other contexts.
Gynaecologists
Gynaecologists are increasingly in demand on MSF projects. To work for us as a gynaecologist, you need be prepared to work with limited resources, in isolated contexts and with other staff who sometimes have little training.
