You will also have ample opportunity to enjoy the beauty and culture of Greece while in the program.

Philotimo Med Abroad believes in the power of cultural exchange as an integral part of your educational journey.

By embracing diverse cultures, you gain a broader perspective on healthcare, develop cross-cultural competencies, and enhance your ability to provide patient-centered care in a multicultural world.
