They worked with a collaborative network of specialists- including Urology, Gastroenterology & Dermatology -to provide surgical & medical assistance. Fellow Ballarat specialists- Lydia Johns Putra (Urologist), Richard McMullin (Urologist) and Wendy Williams (Logisitics) were part of the Ballarat contingency.

A major focus of the trip is the education of local surgeons, and providing ongoing networking opportunities.

The team volunteers their services. All resources for the trip were organized prior to the trip and transported to Madagascar. Donations can be made here .[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
