The Last Himalayan Doctor: Documenting a 60-Year Medical Legacy

This July 2026, a team of emergency doctors, including ATMA's own Indy Sahota, are heading back to the Indian Himalayas for our annual Ladakh Mobile Medical camps. However, this year’s trip includes a very special addition: we will be filming a documentary to honour the 60-year legacy of Dr. Tsering Norboo!

Dr. Norboo is a true pioneer who has dedicated his career to delivering humanitarian medical care to some of the most remote villages in Ladakh. As he approaches the end of his remarkable journey, we want to capture his untold story and highlight the rapidly evolving landscape of healthcare in this region. This film is more than just a biography—it is a lens into the incredible, quiet work that local healthcare providers do every single day to keep their communities safe.

To bring this important story of grassroots global health to life, we have launched a dedicated fundraising campaign. Our team is personally self-funding all of our travel. The funds raised through this new campaign will go strictly toward the film's production, equipment, and dissemination costs.

How You Can Support
Please note that this documentary fundraiser is completely separate from our ongoing medical work:
  • To support the documentary: We would be incredibly grateful for any contributions or shares to our dedicated GoFundMe campaign to help us produce the film: https://gofund.me/96b99b821
  • To support the medical camps: If you wish to donate directly to the clinical work and supplies for the medical camps, you can continue to do so by clicking here. 
​
Thank you so much for your continued support as we work to preserve this vital piece of global health history and continue our medical mission in Ladakh!
