Hospital Overview
Clínica Santa Isabel
Clínica Santa Isabel in Seville, Spain, is a private hospital founded in 1920, known for its extensive specialties like orthopedics, surgery, gynecology, and a 24-hour traffic accident unit. The hospital boasts modern facilities, advanced imaging (MRI, CT), and a multilingual staff to serve international patients with its comprehensive medical care. It has 77 rooms and 5 operating theaters, providing care in more than 40 specialties.
Guadalquivir River
Seville’s iconic Guadalquivir River brings the city to life with its scenic bridges, lively riverbanks, and sunlit pathways perfect for evening strolls. From kayaking to enjoying a river cruise, the river adds a refreshing respite as you explore the city.
Excursions
Our excursions are designed to offer a deeper look into your host culture, for both the educational benefit and the enjoyment of exploring a new place with others who share your interests in travel and medicine. Excursions range from historical tours to culinary and cultural explorations.
Your Site Manager will inform you of the excursions they have planned during your program orientation. If you make travel plans outside of your city for a weekend and it conflicts with the events your Site Manager has planned, notify your Site Manager several days in advance so that they can plan accordingly.
Clinical Experience that Stands Out to Schools
Medical schools want 3 things: healthcare exposure, GPA/MCAT, and certain competencies. Uniquely, “360 Shadowing” gives you the best version of the 1st, frees you to focus on the 2nd, and cultivates/shows the 3rd to medical school admissions.
Funding Your Future
The cost of Atlantis isn’t too dissimilar from the cost of many study abroad programs that you may find. And we’re here to help: from our extensive fundraising guide to flexible payment plans and financing options, we make the process simple and easy, allowing you to focus on what really matters.
Bring a Friend
Consider bringing a friend to the same program you’re applying to. Although the vast majority of Atlantis alumni have gone on programs without knowing someone in their cohort, bringing a friend allows your experience to be shared in a unique way, while still allowing you one of the benefits of Atlantis: meeting new pre-health friends from across the country. Consider sharing this idea with your friends.
