The mission of the Dominican Pediatric ENT Mission is to sustainably provide high quality surgical procedures, medical treatment, audiology care, and educational support in under resourced areas of the Dominican Republic. We establish strong in-country partnerships to involve local communities in our activities: treating patients, improving health care infrastructure, and providing needed medical training to surgeons, doctors, and community health care workers. Going beyond providing direct patient care, we aim to create a long-term impact, empowering local impoverished communities to improve the health and quality of life of their own people.
