The final cases are complete, and our fellowship training team is on its way home from Ethiopia.
Dr. Dave Tetzlaff reports that it has been a highlight seeing Dr. Kassaw perform cleft lip repairs with minimal assistance from volunteer surgeon Dr. Jon Robitschek.
Rhinoplasty training went exceptionally well, and a new set of specialized instruments was left with Dr. Kassaw to support his growing surgical skills.
Another step forward in building pediatric surgical capacity in Ethiopia with our colleauges at College of Medicine and Health Sciences, Bahir Dar University, Ethiopia.
Safe travels, team! ✈

The fellowship team in Ethiopia kept busy on Day 2 of surgeries, doing what they came to do: training alongside their Ethiopian colleagues and caring for patients.
More to come as the work continues!
