Montefiore Einstein Otorhinolaryngology Goes Global: 2023 Mission to Bolivia

In October 2023, Montefiore Einstein Otorhinolaryngology Department joined forces with Operation International, led by Mona Gangar, MD, Co-Director of Team Manhattan, alongside MDs Dilip Madnani and Vikas Mehta, for a mission trip in Tarija, Bolivia, spanning from October 15 to 21.

Six of the 22 team members were from Montefiore, including 3 surgeons (Drs. Gangar, Mehta, Schiff), one resident (Dr. Azmy), 1 scrub tech (Pauline Dennis) and one Einstein medical student (Risha Sheni). One of our alumni, Dr. Dilip Madnani, was also on the trip. During the trip the team screened nearly 250 patients and performed over 70 head and neck and craniofacial surgeries. This is part of a continuing medical mission commitment of our department, providing 1-2 missions internationally each year.
