Founded by Enrique Ccopa, who has spent more than five years supporting international healthcare students in Cusco and building partnerships with trusted local healthcare institutions.
I've spent over five years working with international healthcare students in Peru watching them arrive nervous and leave transformed. I understand what it feels like to step outside your comfort zone, to be far from home, and to chase something meaningful.
MedPath Abroad was built on a simple belief: "Personal and Professional Transformation happens with the proper guidance and support". Every student who trusts us with their experience deserves genuine care, real support, and someone who genuinely cares about their journey.
My background shaped by experiences in Europe, US and Latin America taught me that the best programs aren't built around operational efficiency. They're built around human connection, cultural understanding, and the kind of mentorship that makes students feel seen, not just placed.
"I created this because I believe international experiences should
feel personal, supported, and human. You're not a number here ,
you're a future healthcare professional on a meaningful journey."
