AMS Dental Clinic
Welcome to the AMS Dental Clinic, where we are dedicated to improving dental health for the rural Maasai community.
Full-Time Operations
We are thrilled to announce that AMS Dental Clinic is now operating full-time, providing essential dental care to those in need. Dr. Emmanuel, who graduated with a diploma in Oral Health from Mt. Kenya University in December 2023, officially opened the clinic full-time in February 2024. Equipped with an electric dental chair, suction, dental x-ray, instruments, and consumable supplies, the clinic is committed to offering comprehensive care to our patients.
Volunteer Opportunities
The need for dental care in our community remains significant, and we invite volunteer dentists to join us in making a difference. In addition to seeing patients at the AMS Dental Clinic, volunteers have portable dental units at their disposal, which can be taken to rural villages. This enables us to reach those with limited access to dental services, bringing care directly to those who need it most.
Transforming Dental Care
Historically, rural dental care has often focused on extractions with inadequate pain management. The AMS Dental Clinic aims to transform this experience by incorporating pain control and restorative dental work into our services.
We are grateful for the ongoing support from our volunteers, whose dedication brings smiles to countless faces. Together, we can continue to enhance dental health in our community. Thank you for your interest in supporting AMS Dental Clinic!
AMS Outpatient Center Update 🔨
The local construction and clinic team are pushing to finish up and move into the new center! The reception is being built, punch list worked on, water and septic systems, and cleaning… End of this week we will move into the eye clinic and dental lab and next week we will start moving into the dental store room. We hope to open within the next month.
Thank you to all who have given to make this project possible - from finances to time and effort! We could not do it without you!

This week, we welcomed two teams from the Loma Linda area—LLU and UREACH—to serve alongside us in the Maasai Mara.
Today, part of the team was out on a mobile medical clinic providing general medical care, dental services, and optical care to community members who otherwise have limited access to healthcare. It was a busy day, with many patients receiving the care they needed.
Thank you to our volunteers, healthcare providers, and supporters who make this work possible.

This week, the Fletcher team joined AMS medical and dental staff in providing mobile clinics to villages across the region.
For communities with limited access to healthcare, these outreach clinics bring medical and dental services closer to home, ensuring more people can receive the care they need.
Thank you to everyone who helped make these clinics possible!

This week, the Fletcher SDA Church team joined AMS staff in working on the renovation and expansion of our new Outpatient Department.
We’re excited to celebrate the project’s blessing ceremony this weekend and look forward to opening the facility in mid-July. The expanded facility will allow us to grow services, including a dedicated eye clinic, expanded dental services, and an urgent care clinic with a first aid and treatment room.
Thank you to everyone whose hard work and partnership are helping make this vision a reality and improve access to healthcare in our community.

This week, a team from Fletcher SDA Church joined the AMS team in a variety of community development and healthcare initiatives.
Projects included:
• Construction projects - finishing touches on the outpatient center
• Mobile medical clinics
• Dental clinics
• Cataract surgeries in partnership with the County Eye Team
• Mental health education classes at Kensington
The photos featured here are from this week’s cataract clinic, where patients received sight-restoring surgery that can significantly improve quality of life, independence, and economic participation.
We are grateful to the Fletcher team, the County Eye Team, and AMS staff for their collaboration and commitment to expanding access to healthcare and community services. Through partnership and service, we continue working toward healthier and stronger communities.

From the AMS Health Center team 💙
Thank you to everyone who supported us this past year and helped make it possible to serve the local Maasai community. Through your generosity, we are able to provide 24-hour care, including maternity services, first aid and emergency care, ambulance transfers, outpatient and dental services, and specialty clinics such as cataract care and dermatologic surgery.
We’re excited to step into 2026 as we complete our Outpatient Department renovation and expansion—and begin offering new services full time!
Thank you for your financial support, your time and effort, and your continued prayers. We truly couldn’t do this without you.

The team painted the middle school, put in doors and window panes, painted desk and chairs, built the wood desk seats and boxes, gave dental care, assisted with a vaccination campaign and held a children’s program at the local church. Thank you all for giving of your time and resources to help us serve this community!

This year, I’m running 50 kilometers as part of our 200 km challenge to raise funds for the AMS Outpatient Center Renovation & Expansion Project!
We’re asking for $50 per kilometer to help transform our clinic into a safer, modern facility – complete with the first emergency room in our region, plus new spaces for dental care, urgent care, and HIV counseling.
Every step I take is for a healthier, stronger community.
If you’d like to support, you can sponsor a kilometer or donate any amount toward this important cause. Together, we can make this vision a reality!

The AMS Construction Team has been hard at work — building walls, pouring beams, taking down old walls, and breaking out floors where needed. It’s all coming together, and soon the rough stage will be over and things will start to clean up!
A huge thank you to everyone who has contributed so far — we’ve raised $118,000 USD toward the goal of ~$220,000.
