Upon my return to Haiti, after a 2 week break in the states,
I was very excited to work with Dr. Sandro Visani, Urologist and Surgeon, who came to volunteer at Hospital St. Francois de Sales for a total of 5 weeks in September and October. I was honored to scrub in and assist with surgeries for his last 3 weeks. Hernias, hydroceles and circumcisions were the primary cases that this facility could support. Dr. Visani has vast experience with prostatectomies and nephrectomies but with no blood bank and other limited resources he was limited in his practice. St. Francois de Sales would love to have the capacity to provide radiology services, a full laboratory and blood services. Almost every team that comes here compliments Fr. Geordani's efforts to make the O.R. one of the nicest ones in Northern Haiti.
