MSF is particularly seeking HIV specialists, pediatricians, anesthetists, surgeons, obstetricians/gynecologists,
and infectious disease specialists.
Primary care physicians undertake a combination of curative care and teaching/administrative
duties, with the balance varying according to the project. Curative care generally
takes place in clinic settings and to some degree in field hospitals or existing
hospitals. Teaching and administrative responsibilities include supervising
and training local medical staff, planning medical programs, pharmacy management
and medical supplies, and reporting on medical activities.
