Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can I shadow a doctor?
    • For reasons of patient privacy and lack of space, we do not typically accept requests to shadow doctors.
  • Can I participate in direct patient care?
    • We accept professional health providers with appropriate credentialing as volunteers, however for liability purposes volunteers without credentialing cannot participate in direct patient care.
  • Do you have any volunteer openings right now?
    • Volunteer opportunities vary based upon the needs of the clinic and the expertise of the volunteer. Please see our Current Openings page or contact the Volunteer Coordinator for more information.
    • We receive more requests to volunteer than we can fill, and we may not have openings at the immediate time of your interest. Volunteers who demonstrate commitment to the PCC mission will receive priority consideration.
  • How can I apply to volunteer?
    • Return your completed Volunteer ApplicationPDF via fax (512-542-9940), via email, or mail to:

  • There aren’t any current opportunities I’m interested in, but I’d still like to volunteer. What should I do?
    • Submit an application anyway. We will keep it on file and let you know if a position becomes available that suits your interests and skills.
    • Volunteer opportunities vary over time and it is difficult to predict when a new opportunity will become available. Keep checking our Current Openings page for updates.
    • Try volunteering in a different area of the clinic than your first choice. Volunteers can switch to a different position during their term of service and often hear about new opportunities before they are posted publicly.
    • Stay in touch with PCC by joining our email list (see below) or liking us on Facebook.
  • If you have additional questions, please contact Allison Jones, Volunteer Coordinator at 512-708-3156 or via email.
