Neurosurgery Team Operates In Honduras

Casa Corazón's first neurosurgery brigade just returned from Honduras! During the week-long brigade, the team worked with local Neurosurgeons, Dra. Miller, Dr. Velasquez, and Dr. Mancias to help patients suffering from Spine fractures, brain tumors, brain aneurysms, congenital deformities, and hydrocephalus. Casa's team consisted of Dr. Joel Winer, Neurosurgeon, Missy Gillis, RN, Prudence Martin, RN, Megan Fingleton, Photographer, and Jodi Gemmell, RN. Casa Corazón wishes to thank the wonderful pediatric and OR staff at Hospital Mario Catarino Rivas, SPS for their generosity and hospitality in working together with us to change lives and offer hope. A special thank-you to the ladies from Fundacion Ayuda for helping us with travel arrangements and other details to make the trip run smoothly. A heart-felt thank-you goes to the members of the brigade for donating their time, talents, and rising to the challenge of caring for patients in a difficult environment. Stay tuned to our website for upcoming photos and thought from the brigade.
