Thanks, Dr. Furtak!
We are very grateful for Dr. Anastasia Furtak coming to provide surgical coverage during Dr. Haun’s sabbatical.
Thanks Dr. Faile
It’s always an honor to have Dr. George Faile III come and serve at BMC. It was especially helpful this past month as he provided surgical coverage in Dr. Haun’s absence.
Thanks again, Dr. Adrian!
Dr. Adrian came to BMC for a fourth time and stayed for two months! Repeat volunteers like him who stay for extended periods of time are extremely effective.
