MedGlobal in Mexico
In Matamoros, Mexico, thousands of migrants and refugees are stranded at the U.S. border. Many live in shelters, shared rooms, or are unhoused, facing serious health risks with no access to consistent medical care.
MedGlobal has been providing healthcare and humanitarian support in Mexico since 2021. As needs grow, we continue to deliver lifesaving care to people who would otherwise go untreated.

Providing Essential Care
Overview
MedGlobal provides essential healthcare to migrants, refugees, deportees, and underserved communities in Matamoros. Many are stuck at the border, unable to cross into the U.S. or return to their home countries.
How is MedGlobal Helping Mexico?
We operate in three main locations—Casa del Migrante, Ayudándoles a Triunfar, and the Pumarejo Shelter—serving as the only consistent healthcare provider in the main city shelters. Our teams deliver primary care, medications, mental health support, and emergency referrals, providing services seven days a week.
We also provide WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) support to shelters, distributing hygiene supplies and improving living conditions for families in crisis.
MedGlobal recently launched a social work program to help patients digitize their medical records, ensuring they can continue receiving care once they cross the border.
To reach even more people, we are planning to open a new clinic in southeastern Matamoros, where many of the most underserved communities currently lack healthcare access.
As needs continue to grow, MedGlobal remains committed to providing care and dignity to those seeking safety and a better life.
