Today was exceptionally busy across all teams, with a total of 13 successful procedures completed.

In Ndemban, plastic and orthopaedic surgeons worked collaboratively on a highly complex case, achieving a life-changing result.
The paediatric orthopaedic team performed surgeries on babies aged 10 months to 2 years, as well as children up to 13 years old — all with excellent outcomes.

The adult orthopaedic team completed a challenging ulna reconstruction, involving a bone graft from the hip to the wrist.

Meanwhile in Banjul, the team carried out life-enhancing reconstructive surgery on a 1-year-old child, in addition to three other complex procedures.

Our nurses were busy on the post operative surgical ward ensuring all of our patients from yesterday were comfortable, with their pain managed as well as receiving today’s patients.

The physios were out on the wards mobilising the post operative patients and preparing for discharge.

Despite the late finish, the team remains energised and ready to begin again first thing tomorrow.

Day two of The GamMed team's mission has been an outstanding success, with 11 life-changing procedures performed by our team of expert surgeons and consultants. We're grateful for the support of local medical professionals, who worked alongside our team in Mdemban and Banjul. The day was filled with teaching, training, and, most importantly, transforming lives. With all procedures completed as planned, patients are now on the road to recovery, either at home or in the hospital. Tomorrow, we'll review their progress and begin the next stage of their journey, including mobilisation and physiotherapy.
