WE NEED SUPPLIES |
NAVMC’s Bolivia team travels annually to Palacios, Bolivia to perform surgery for patients from rural areas that otherwise lack access to treatment.

Using two operating rooms for 4–5 days, NAVMC volunteers perform surgeries including hysterectomies, gall bladder removal, hernia repairs, and more.
