Volunteers in Medicine is a unique organization in Cape May County as all patients who meet income criterion are seen without charge by a qualified physician who is assisted by volunteer nurses who are committed to the work they do. It is a professional organization with a superb staff and dedicated volunteers. Physicians can donate as few as a half-day a month or as frequently as every day!
