The Afya school clinic, situated on Avenida Tancredo Neves in Salvador, Brazil, offers free medical care to the community through 60 consulting rooms. This clinic serves as a practical training ground for medical students, who deliver services under the supervision of experienced professors. The initiative underscores the commitment to accessible health care while also providing valuable learning experiences for future doctors.

The clinic features a wide range of specialties, including General Medicine, Pediatrics, and various surgical and non-surgical fields such as Dermatology and Cardiology among others. This comprehensive approach ensures that patients can receive diverse medical attention in a single location, improving their access to health services without the financial burden. The care is provided in fully equipped rooms that facilitate not just consultations but also small medical procedures.

According to Daiane Gil, the coordinator of the outpatient clinic, the services are delivered with full oversight from the professors. This model not only enhances the educational experience for the medical students but also ensures that patients receive proper care. The combination of free services with clinical education presents an innovative approach to addressing health care access in Salvador.
