GENERAL INFORMATION

• How we build teams

First we ask that all potential team members fill out a team member questionnaire and return it to us. At that point you are put into our database.

When we have set a date for an upcoming trip we email all of our potential team members to see if our date aligns with their schedules. From there we build our teams. The team members are not all medically trained; we take non-medical as well.

• Trips & Follow-up patient care

Our trips are usually 10 days in length. The time in Pucallpa is typically broken down into 1 day of clinic, 3 days of surgery and then rounds the day we depart the jungle. The team will also spend a little time in Lima. We have a Peruvian medical coordinator who does follow-up on our surgical patients after our departure. They are seen at 2 weeks, 4-6 weeks, 4 months and 1 year post-surgery.
