Restoring faithful Catholic medical education and care
In this powerful presentation to the Catholic Medical Association, Jere Palazzolo (Founder & President, Catholic Healthcare International) and Dr. George Mychaskiw (Founding President, Saint Padre Pio Institute for the Relief of Suffering School of Osteopathic Medicine) share the mission, vision, and founding of Catholic Healthcare International — a movement rooted in fidelity to Christ and the authentic teachings of the Catholic Church. Our culture is in crisis. Many institutions that once carried the Catholic name have compromised under cultural pressure. But faithful Catholics are rising.
This mission seeks to:
✅ Form physicians in true Catholic moral teaching
✅ Provide healthcare that honors the dignity of every human person — from conception to natural death
✅ Restore medicine to its healing vocation grounded in faith, compassion, and truth
✅ Build a Catholic medical school, medical center, and network of care guided by Padre Pio’s charism and Christ’s command to defend life
Every week, medical students, physicians, and faculty reach out, longing to be part of something authentically Catholic — something courageous, transformative, and rooted in the Gospel. The infrastructure, vision, and leadership are in place. Now, we need partners and benefactors who feel called to help build what the Church — and the world — desperately needs.
Is God calling you to join this mission?
Together, we will reclaim Catholic medicine and change the world.
