Pura Vida Medical Group

Founded: 2025
Health Science Center Medicine (Bryan, TX)

The purpose of PVMG is to improve access to healthcare in a medically
underserved community in Costa Rica by establishing a clinic and providing a
sustainable system for essential medical resources. By helping this community,
PVMG aims to establish a model that can be adapted to support other
underserved communities globally. While our current focus is on Costa Rica, we
aim to use this organization as a foundation to expand our impact to similar
communities worldwide. Additionally, PVMG seeks to expand knowledge and
awareness of global health topics among its members and the broader
community. To achieve this purpose, PVMG will:
1. Bridge the healthcare gap in the San Isidro community by establishing a
clinic and securing a sustainable supply chain for medicine, equipment,
and resources.
2. Provide long-term access to quality healthcare for the community.
3. Build healthier futures for communities facing similar barriers in
healthcare by advancing local solutions.
4. Promote education and awareness of global health issues through
workshops, panels, and training opportunities for members.
