Trip Information: The mission will take place in Valladolid, Mexico, and is to be done as a special request of our supporting medical missionaries, Roberto and Ricardo Rodriguez of Monterrey, Mexico.
Won’t you be a part of this exciting and challenging, remarkably rewarding project, to a place that has never been served in this manner? We will do 2 cases simultaneously in one OR and do mostly TURP's the old fashioned method.
We will do about 10% open prostatectomies and a few renal and ureteral stones. This proves to be a very satisfying mission – one GHO has accomplished 6 times in Mexico since 2003. God has truly blessed all our efforts.
One of the greatest needs we have encountered in the past is for nurses, both in the OR and for the immediate post-op time period. Our work has placed a heavy load on the national OR personnel, so we need at least 3-4 good nurses to accompany us.
We will also need a minimum of 2 Anesthesiologists or Nurse Anesthesiologists who can give spinals. Finally, we are praying for someone who would supplement the nurses' travel and project fee costs.
Vaccination Information: Wondering what immunizations you’ll need for the mission trip? Please refer to the Centers for Disease Control website.
