OPERATION MEDICAL CARE INC.

During our mission trip to Belize last fall, our doctors identified a young Ecuadorian with critical health problems.

He is being brought to our area for FREE corrective surgery and will be in Pensacola for 8 – 12 weeks after surgery on an outpatient basis.

Operation Medical Care is looking for help with donations to help defray costs.  Additionally, host families are being sought to help this young man during his recovery.

Operation Medical Care will provide funds to the host family towards his care.

If you are interested in helping, please send your contributions to

Operation Medical Care,

332 Medcrest Drive,

Crestview Florida, 32536.

For more information or to volunteer, please contact Dr. Joseph Peter at 850.683.5100 or 850.865.8746
