No. The majority of our volunteers have a medical or nursing background but we also need skilled support staff. This include:  

1. Paramedical professionals (nutritionists, laboratory scientist)
2. Logistical support staff/technical experts (general logisticians, water and sanitation engineers)
3. Financial controllers

 MSF does not recruit the following professionals as expatriate staff:

1. Acupuncturists
2. Aroma therapists
3. Oncologists
4. Dentists / dental surgeons
5. Dieticians
6. Doctors of traditional Chinese medicine
7. BUMS (Unani), BAMS (Ayurveda) and BHMS (Homeopathy)
8. Massage therapists
9. (Most) super-specialised surgeons
10. Occupational therapists
