Team Neuro is a dedicated group of medical professionals working on opening the first neurosurgery center in the Techiman region of Ghana. At the end of February, we will head on our second medical mission to Ghana’s Holy Family Hospital to continue building the program and provide much-needed operations for children and adults in need of neurosurgical care.
Since 2023, Team Neuro has worked with the physicians and administrative staff at the Holy Family Hospital in Techiman, Ghana to open the first neurosurgery center in that part of the country. The team completed our first mission in April 2024, where we provided 28 complex neurological surgeries within just one week to patients who otherwise would not have been able to access care. Our goal over the course of the next few years is to build the hospital’s neurosurgery program with continued training of the local staff and the donation of equipment to the center. It is our hope that this center can become a neurosurgery referral center for the other hospitals located in the central portion of Ghana.
