Meet Our Missioners
As an organization rooted in solidarity, relationships developed on mission are key to our work. We are proud that many of our missioners return year after year. Mission teams may include surgeons, anesthesiologists, surgical technicians, nurses, clinicians, interpreters, chaplains, photographers, and helpers. Some of our milestone missioners are profiled below.
“When we provide devices hospitals could not possibly afford and teach surgeons to use them, we’ve created a self-sustaining situation in which people are cared for whether we are present or not,” says Dr. Richard Moser, Neurosurgeon at the University of Massachusetts. As Medical Director of our Neurosurgery Program, Dr. Moser has been an instrumental leader since the program’s inception. As of 2018, he has completed more than 20 mission trips.
