“I led an expedition to The Gambia earlier this year, leading a team of young people in an extremely rural setting. Endeavour Medical provided the on-call medical support during my trip.

During the expedition I required assistance from Endeavour thankfully only on a single occasion. The advice and assistance given during that incident was ideal, delivered in helpful and professional manner. The assistance resolved the issue and assured me than in the future any assistance would be both efficient and professional.

I would highly recommend Endeavour Medical”.

Their team of medics are international, allowing them to overcome time differences and offer support as it was needed, not just during office hours.
