The FAME Outpatient Clinic is located in Karatu, Tanzania, roughly 2.8 km from the highway.  Positioned within view of the outer slopes of the Ngorongoro Crater, it is accessible by foot and vehicle. The clinic site is in a peaceful and quiet setting, an environment conducive to healing and surrounded by unsurpassed natural beauty.

The rapid growth in the District of Karatu, coupled with a mounting healthcare crisis on the continent, has made it virtually impossible for  doctors to keep pace with the ever-increasing medical needs of the community. This facility has been built to help bridge the gap between an under-resourced healthcare system and first-world medicine.

The FAME Outpatient Clinic includes examination and treatment rooms, acute care facilities, a minor procedure room, a birthing room, a laboratory, a pharmacy, and a health education component. 

Many citizens suffer from curable diseases that remain untreated. Many people also die unnecessarily from serious injuries and/or subsequent infection due to a lack of local emergency services. The FAME Outpatient Clinic has been designed to address the very pressing medical needs in the region.
