VisitGlobal cycle tours to raise awareness of the worldwide surgical need of the poor.
VisitI had been in private practice as plastic and reconstructive surgeon in East London, South Africa, for 10 years when I signed up to serve with Mercy Ships for 10 days on the West Coast of Africa. Gripped by the love and reality of God, the intense poverty I saw and the desperate need of people sharing our world, my life changed forever.
I was called to serve God full-time and now serve with Mercy Ships, Operation Smile and The Pan African Academy of Christian Surgeons to help relieve this enormous surgical burden that destroys so many lives. These organizations reach out to the forgotten poor with a message of hope and healing, show them by word and action that each human life is valuable, important and certainly not forgotten. While physical and spiritual healing takes place, dignity and self-respect is restored.
