HINCHE, Haiti—The Emory surgical team will be performing surgeries in Hinche this week. Drs. Viraj Master and Jana MacLeod are returning with a team of doctors, nurses and medical students, many which are returning volunteers from last year’s trip.
Master and MacLeod led the surgical team partnered with Project Medishare last year. It was the first time a surgical team was hosted by the government hospital in Hinche. Last year the team performed 15 successful surgeries over four days.
