MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear Friend, Thank you so much for taking the time to visit our website. I hope that it gives you a clear picture of the ways in which God is working through International Health Services, enabling us to equip Christian medical professionals to serve as conduits of Christ's love. We are humbled and excited by God's evident blessing on this ministry as it is transforming lives and spreading like wildfire. We have received unsolicited invitations from 31 countries to implement the Saline Solution Conference and the intensive follow-up mentoring program. Speaking of the Saline Solution-International principles a Lithuanian physician said, "It gives me freedom to share Christ and to share my life. It also provides great joy and will help me have better relationships with my patients and be more effective as a doctor." Another Saline Solution-International participant, a Hungarian physician, told me, "I want to plant the flag of Jesus over my medical practice." He has done just that, implementing the principles he learned in the Saline Solution-International to create a Christ-centered clinic. It is my desire that we would be able to encourage and enable other physicians to grow in their relationships with God and to share Christ's love with others through their unique profession. I invite you to explore the ways in which you can partner with International Health Services as we challenge men and women to allow their faith to radically permeate every aspect of their lives, especially as they serve their patients with medical needs. Bob Snyder, M.D. President Bob Snyder, M.D. As president and founder of International Health Services, Dr. Snyder oversees a medical mission facilitating doctors, dentists, and other health care professionals to integrate their faith into their medical practices. Dr. Snyder practiced emergency medicine for 15 years; co-chairing the Department of Emergency Medicine at Brandywine Hospital in Coatesville, Pennsylvania, for 10 years. He continues as an adjunct assistant professor of emergency medicine at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. When the Snyders moved to Central Europe in 1996, he began writing a weekly journal entitled “Lessons Learned on the Journey.” These vignettes are just as they as described - lessons from living and ministering in Central Europe, from practicing medicine, from his marriage and family, and from his growing-up years. Each lesson contains a spiritual truth. If you would like to receive these weekly lessons please click here. Click here to return to the "About Us" section
