The clinic is set up in a convention center or school and patients are seen on a first-come, first-served basis until capacity is met. There are no criteria or limitations on who may be treated other than they must meet the minimum health standards. It takes 1,000 volunteers to run the clinic. No one is paid for his/her time or talents.
