The Best Experience of My Life!

The team are extremely welcoming and organised. SO much for us to do—with regards to both medicine and being able to explore the island and immerse ourselves into the culture. This elective was truly once in a lifetime, and I would recommend this to anyone!!!

Vincy Elective

Very good for a medical elective. Clinics are easily organised and doctors really want you to learn, especially Orthopedics and sports medicine. Constant sunshine, amazing island tours, and a supportive team. Locals want you to love it here, experiencing seafood and fruits not available in the UK. Loved it!

Elective Stay

The team were so helpful throughout our stay and were always keen to share activity or event suggestions with us. Our Tobago Cays day trip was definitely a highlight of the trip and would recommend to everyone to attend.

My Elective in SVG!

I arranged my 6 week elective in St Vincent and the Grenadines with Caribbean Elective abroad. Prior to going, I didn’t know anyone who had visited either St Vincent or gone on elective with CEA, so it was a bit of a gamble but it was 100% worth it.

A Trip of a Lifetime!

I can’t recommend this company enough for your future elective. I had the most amazing time on the beautiful island of Saint Vincent and had the opportunity to visit multiple islands whilst there. The accommodation was beautiful and the staff members Janelle and Shanique were always in their office on site to help with anything we needed.

Best Elective Ever!

Had the most amazing 4 weeks in St Vincent and would absolutely do it all again in a heart beat. It was the perfect mixture of placement and clinics in the local community with friendly consultants in wide range of specialties, as well as exploring what the island has to offer. The boat trips included in the elective were amazing and everyone we came in contact with was very welcoming and friendly.
