Welcome!
Welcome to A Doctor's Heart, Inc., an organization dedicated to meeting the physical and spiritual needs of the under-served in Central and South America. After leading four trips to Guatemala under the flag of different denominations, A Doctor's Heart was formed in 2007 as a Protestant, Non-Denominational 501 C-3 corporation.
Our goals are easy: See a need and develop a plan for meeting the need, however meeting the need can sometimes be dangerous. A Doctor's Heart is committed to forming life long working friendships to help those who help the most needy in the most remote areas of Central and South America. We are currently focusing on the Amazon region of Brazil.

2010 Recap
2010 has been a busy and productive year for A Doctor’s Heart. In April, a team of seven went to Centenario, Amazonas to construct a new home for missionaries Sergio and Laura. This new home on the Uraria’ river will allow Sergio and Laura to minister to the people of Centenario, as well as many of the surrounding villages. A Doctor’s Heart was also able to provide a deep, clean water well in Centenario which will dramatically improve the health of the village. The house was built from a bare patch of land, to a completed home in 10 days. The build team was able to complete the home even though it rained constantly and the construction site was very muddy.
The Medical/VBS team visited Amazonas in June and spent 10 days ministering to the villages on the Abacaxis River. They were able to treat over 950 medical patients and 350 eye care patients. While the medical team was holding their clinics, the VBS team was busy putting on a tremendous VBS program which centered on the parable of “The Good Samaritan”. Meeting both physical and spiritual needs has always been a top priority for A Doctor’s Heart missions.
Next, our annual fund raiser “Hor d’oeuvers for the Brain and Soul” will be held July 31st at the Monticello Opera House. All proceeds from this fund raiser are used to purchase medicines, glasses, and other health care related costs associated with our missions.
