The Florence program offers diverse shadowing opportunities in both medical and surgical fields at Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria Careggi, a historic hospital dating back to the 14th century.

Now a modern, cutting-edge facility, Careggi is home to one of the region’s largest emergency departments and offers a wide range of specialties. It also serves as a major research and teaching center, closely affiliated with the University of Florence—many of its doctors also teach there.

Recognized by Newsweek as one of the world’s top 250 hospitals, Careggi combines centuries of medical history with high-quality, modern care.
