Free Health Care Clinic in Nigeria using the Pelican 9450
Dan Anderson over 3 years ago

Twice a year Dr. Dapo Popoola, MD leads a team of volunteers from The Peninsula Community Church in Palos Vedes Estates, California on a medical mission to Bombo, Nigeria. They provide free medical care for the local residents who would otherwise not have care. Electricity can be an off and on again thing during the day and frequently fails during surgery. On previous visits the nurses often held a flashlight over the doctors head while he worked. Trader Dan and his mother donated a Pelican 9450 to Dr. Popoola and the team which they took to Bombo. The Remote Lighting System gave them great, unobstructed light to operate in without the fear of a power outage.

We are a better world because of the missions that Dr. Popoola, Jim Welch and the team do each year. To see more pictures from the September 2008 trip go to http://.www.easysite.com/uganda. There are numerous articles about Dr. Popoola at www.obesitycommand.com/surgilite/articles/default.htm.
