Does your organization respond in a specific country(ies), or wherever your services are needed?

Other - Because of the type of surgeries we do, we only focus in one institution who can do a pre op, intra op and post care to our patients. Also because our surgeries are complicated, we want our patients to be taken care of while they are recuperating.
