Dr. Harrell E. Robinson Advocates for Global Access to Healthcare
Surgeon-Turned-Philanthropist Calls for Action in Supporting Underserved Communities Worldwide
ORANGE COUNTY, CA / ACCESS Newswire / May 13, 2025 /In a recent feature interview titled "Dr. Harrell E. Robinson: From Alabama Roots to Global Health Leader", physician, humanitarian, and CEO Dr. Harrell E. Robinson is calling for increased awareness and support for healthcare access in underserved regions around the world. Drawing from his decades of medical practice and international outreach, Dr. Robinson is urging individuals to take initiative in contributing to health equity globally.
"We can 't keep waiting for big systems to fix broken ones," Dr. Robinson said in the interview. "Each of us has the power to start small and help someone who has nothing."
Dr. Robinson 's passion stems from firsthand experience. During his medical residency, he traveled to Bangkok, Thailand, and the Cambodian refugee camps, where he performed surgeries in field conditions for patients without any access to care. "I saw things I couldn 't ignore," he recalled. "That trip changed my life."
That experience led to the founding of Global Healing Inc., his nonprofit focused on building hospitals and delivering sustainable healthcare services in communities like Laos, the Philippines, and across parts of Africa, Mexico, and the rural U.S. Through this work, he 's supported the Mayne Tribe in the Philippines for over a decade, providing food, clothing, and shelter.
According to the World Health Organization, nearly half of the world 's population lacks access to essential healthcare services. In low-income countries, the average doctor-to-patient ratio is less than 1 per 1,000 people, compared to more than 2.6 per 1,000 in the United States. "That 's not just a gap-it 's a crisis," Robinson emphasized.
Dr. Robinson says the solution isn 't just financial; it 's personal.
"Anyone can help. You don 't need to be a doctor. You can organize a clothing drive, donate basic supplies, or even help build a website for a rural clinic. There are a thousand ways to support people who 've been left behind."
In addition to his medical and humanitarian work, Dr. Robinson also leads ATR Law Group PLLC, a Phoenix-based immigration law firm, alongside his wife. His dual roles reflect a lifetime of blending purpose with strategy, something he believes everyone can emulate.
"You don 't need to save the world in a day. But if we each take one step, the world will shift," he said.
Dr. Harrell E. Robinson encourages individuals, students, professionals, and community groups to learn about underserved areas and explore how their unique skills can support global health and humanitarian needs.
