First Day of Major Surgery at Bartica Hospital (ever) a Success.

Due to the outstanding preparation by the hospital staff and administration, the visiting Remote Area Medical and Ministry of Health team completed six surgeries yesterday in the debut event.

Special thanks to Terry Mohamed, Marcy Gravesande and TGA for helping scramble and deliver some urgent anesthesia supplies early this morning to keep the team in action. Also thanks to Baganara resorts for volunteering to transport surgical clients by boat and provide airport security.
