Today we are doing ENT surgery at Cure hospital. The hospital has been open for less than two years and is operated by Cure, a US foundation started by a pediatric orthopaedic surgeon. There is a US trained plastic surgeon, a US trained orthopaedic surgeon here and a Pakistani Anesthesiologist here who work for CURE. They have all worked in other cure hospitals around the world; I think there are ten in developing countries. There is one in the Dominican Republic that sent relief workers to Haiti immediately after the earthquake. This hospital is closest to the standards of care and practice that we are used to in the US.
