UPCOMING TRIPS!

• April 2020 - Balfate, Honduras

  We will be going to the Hospital Loma de Luz in Balfate, Honduras
  to help provide healthcare for the local community in both the clinic and the operating room. This mission trip has been ongoing for over a decade and was initially established by Dr. Kaalan Johnson during his residency at the Eastern Virginia Medical School, Department of Otolaryngology. Last year, we saw over 25 patients and performed 16 surgeries of all kinds from complex laceration repair to functional sinus surgery to large tumor and vascular malformation resections.

  Our team this year includes veteran surgeons Dr. Kaalan Johnson,
  Dr. Isaac Bohannon, and Dr. Al Hillel providing a wide variety of
  otolaryngology and subspecialty practice. Dr. Angelique Berens will return to Balfate as an attending surgeon after many trips as a resident surgeon. From the University of Washington Department of Otolaryngology, we welcome resident
  surgeons- Dr. Kaitlyn Zenner, Dr. Emmanuel Jauregui, Dr. Neeraja Konuthula, and
  Dr. Grace Wandell. Dr. Michael Collins will provide anesthesia with the help of
  his fellow, Dr. Holly Snyder. Surgical technologist, Joshua Kennedy, will keep
  the operating rooms running as he has on many previous trips.
  

  Please donate to our cause and support the local community in
  Balfate, Honduras- a region that otherwise has minimal access to healthcare.
