International Relief Charity Opens First U.S. Clinic in Rockaways
Source: wnyc news
The relief group Doctors of the World, which operates in war torn nations like Syria, Mali and Somalia is opening its first U.S. clinic, in the Rockaways. The organization provided aid immediately following Sandy and decided to set up a brick and mortar medical clinic in Rockaway Beach, Queens.
When Sandy landed last October in the Rockaways, it brought hordes of volunteers and aid groups to the area that had never been to the peninsula before. One group was Doctors of the World, an international relief network based in France, started by co-founders of Doctors Without Borders, with a focus on staying after emergencies.
Noah Barth is the program coordinator for the charity and said while Doctors of the World usually operates in distressed parts of the world, it was clear that residents of the Rockaways had severe medical needs.
"We saw a lot of people with upper respiratory tract infections, a lot of people that went months without seeing a doctor that just needed routine stuff," he said, speaking in the newly-renovated, seven-room clinic on Beach 102nd Street. "Now you're starting to see the setting in of post-traumatic stress disorders, anxiety, depression," he said.
