Welcome to Avril’s Medical Clinic – Toliara, Madagascar

Avril is an Australian doctor serving in Toliara, a coastal city in southern Madagascar. She provides basic, life-saving healthcare to people with little or no access to medical treatment.

About the Clinic

Avril runs a small medical clinic in Toliara using borrowed space and basic equipment. The clinic exists to help people who otherwise could not afford treatment.

Why It Matters

“People are too poor to pay for medical treatment. They will take a taxi one time in their life – when they go to the hospital to die…”

That quote from a Malagasy friend, shared with Avril, has proven heartbreakingly true again and again. The cost of even basic care — or a ride to the hospital — puts it out of reach for many families. Avril’s clinic steps into that gap with compassion, practical help, and faith.
