Medical Missions: Ghana

 Kim , Thank you so much for your contribution to our medical mission to Techiman Ghana. It was an amazing trip with an amazing group of people from the International Surgical Mission Support (ISMS) team from New York. While there we were able to perform the first laparoscopic vaginal hysterectomy in the history of Ghana. We were also able to teach the surgeons there how to perform this procedure and left with them the equipment to do this as well as other laparoscopic procedures. Meeting and working with the medical staff at the Holy Family Hospital in Techiman was a wonderful experience. By the end of our stay we felt as if we were leaving family. You can see the smiles on the nurses in the photos as they sport their Kimkaps. Thanks again for your donation. Thanks also to the nurses at Midtown Surgery Center in Charlotte NC for donating their old Kimkaps for me to take and hand out in Techiman as well.
