Surgery team begins their work


Additional team members arrive today at 11:30am and 3:30pm. This morning the surgical team arrived at the hospital around 8:30am. Their focus today is to visit and screen patients for possible surgeries. We already have a list of over 100 patients who are identified as candidates. Over 50 were already lined up this morning when we arrived. Many more are expected to arrive after lunch. Needs range from skin infections to cleft palate repair.


While most surgeries will begin tomorrow, Dr. Jay has already performed 2 gall bladder surgeries. Additional pictures are in the photo section to the right. If you'd like to enlarge the pictures, simply click on any picture.


Thanks Jill for the note! We'd love to hear from others. Tonight at dinner we'll share your notes with the team.
