2018 El Salvador Mission: Highlights

El Salvador Mission: Highlights

Jeanie Fry, Lecturer Gall Bladder topics

One of the many highlights of this years' mission to Hospital de Maternidad in Texacuangos, El Salvador, was the nurse's lecture provided by Jeanie Fry, one of our volunteers.  

Jeanie put together an excellent talk entitled "Preoperative and Postoperative Care of Gallbladder Surgery Patients".  Her talk was presented at a local hospital and was well attended as you can see by this photo.

Dr. Brent Matthews lectures on Hernias

Dr. Brent Matthews also delivered an inspiring lecture to local medical students and surgery residents in training.  This lecture is always a big hit, with the focus on hernias.



Education is one of SOfA's primary goals, along with providing surgical care for those in need.
