Operation International’s Team in Bolivia

In October 2023, Operation International’s Team Manhattan headed to Tarija, Bolivia. This marked the team’s second expedition following a highly successful mission to Uganda in 2022, during which they conducted over 80 life-changing surgeries in just one week. The focus of this year’s mission was directed towards patients dealing with head and neck issues, along with children afflicted by cleft lips and palates. The dedicated team of surgeons, anesthesiologists, residents, and nurses, with the generous support received, was enthusiastic about extending much-needed care to the people of Bolivia.
