WHAT STUDENTS SAY
MONICA DUGGAL
I and 2 friends organized our dental elective in the Philippines and I couldn’t fault it! The staff worked hard throughout the 2 weeks we were with them to make sure we had a lot of hands-on experience and a variety of things to do! I would recommend to any students considering an elective in the Philippines. Thanks again for an unforgettable experience!

April and her family made our dental elective an incredible experience. With regards to the dental side, it was organised perfectly. It allowed us to visit the local university where we assisted lectures that educated children, visited the mayor and met other dental students, but most importantly permitted us to make a difference in the local community by being able to treat people from all different parts of Capiz. They went above and beyond what was needed and I would definitely highly recommend this to anyone looking for a quality hands on dental experience whilst wanting to being able to explore the city.

My experience of both dentistry in the Philippines and the country itself would not have been the same without the help and support provided by the team at global electives port. Myself and two others were made to feel so very welcome and safe at all times. If you are looking for dental experience in an environment very different to our own (e.g for an elective project) I couldn’t recommend it enough.

“Me and my partner Jessie Zhu decided to go in the Philippines for our medical elective in Roxas City. We are normally based in Brisbane, Australia. We cannot recommend them enough. You'll be well and truly looked after by April and her partner Nino - it honestly felt like they were our family in the Philippines. ”

I had an elective in psychiatry at Roxas City with last august. As someone who came a long way from Kuwait, I did not get disappointed with all the hospitality and warm welcome I received from GEP staff. They made the trip really helpful and the accommodation felt homey which is exactly what i hoped it would be. Philippines is such a great country with very nice people.
I would totally recommend choosing them if you’re considering doing an international elective.

I had the best time on our ventures in the Philippines. We were provided with not only excellent dental experience but also many fun activities. April and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate us and make us feel welcome throughout our stay.
Couldn’t recommend dental and medical students to join the program highly enough.
