Discover the life of Clara A. Swain, M.D., the first medical missionary to the women of the Orient.
This biography traces her calling, training, and decades of trailblazing work in India, where she combined medical care with Christian service.

She and her companion sailed to India in 1869–1870, where she began medical work in Bareilly among orphans, homes, and a growing class of Christian girls training to practice medicine. Her efforts culminated in the founding of a women’s hospital and a dispensary, funded in part by a local ruler, and the training of graduates who earned certificates to practice.Across years of travel and service, she cared for patients in city and village, advised on women’s health, and helped establish educational opportunities for girls. Her work also led to later appointments, including service as physician to a native princess and continued mission work in challenging environments.
