Steve Rubin, MSF surgeon, talks about the medical needs in Syria
“Before the war, people in Syria had good quality care. Some of the people really want that care again. So they come in here because they don’t have any other options to go to anymore.
Other than us, everybody else is doing war trauma, so the other hospitals can’t help them for most pathologies. That’s why we’re here... we’re trying to fill a gap for them.

In Syria the number of people in need of urgent medical care keeps increasing. MSF runs six hospitals, four health centres and several mobile clinic programmes inside Syria. While these medical programmes are undoubtedly saving dozens of lives every day, the extremely high insecurity means that MSF's reach is limited. Throughout most of the country, there are places where medical services are either limited or totally absent.
