General Surgery
In many countries across Africa, hernias and goiters are common amongst adults and children. Children with these conditions frequently miss school and adults become unable to work and support their families.
Often, a simple surgery can relieve the burden of these conditions.
Mercy Ships provides free corrective surgeries to those suffering with curable conditions in the countries we serve.
We also work in partnership with local governments, hospitals, and healthcare professionals to provide the specialized surgeries that facilitate life-changing transformations.
