Successful Medical Mission in Guatemala: Team ENT Returns After Impactful Decade of Service

In a momentous achievement, our dedicated medical professionals, Drs. Shawn Ciecko, Mike Amato, I. David Bough, Jr., Daniel Grinberg, and Marc Carney (Retired), have recently concluded a highly successful medical mission in Guatemala.

During their time in Guatemala, the medical team performed over 60 major head and neck surgical cases, providing transformative care to individuals in critical need. Beyond surgical interventions, the team seized the opportunity to share their expertise, actively engaging in the education of medical students on the intricacies of head and neck surgery, passing on knowledge to the next generation of healthcare providers.

This mission holds significant importance as it marks the eighth visit to Guatemala and the eleventh overall for Team ENT. Over the past decade, Team ENT has made a substantial impact on numerous lives, delivering crucial care to patients, including those facing the challenges of limited treatment options in their battle against cancer.

Heartfelt congratulations are extended to Drs. Ciecko, Amato, Bough, Grinberg, and Carney for their exceptional service and unwavering dedication to making a meaningful difference in the lives of others. Their efforts truly exemplify the core values of our organization, and we take immense pride in their accomplishments.

Dr. Shawn Ciecko, the visionary behind Operation International Team ENT since its inception in 2011, deserves special recognition for laying the foundation of a decade of impactful work. For more information about their mission and ongoing efforts, interested parties are invited to visit their website: Operation International Team ENT.

We invite our community and supporters to join us in celebrating the remarkable achievements of our team as we extend a warm welcome back home. Together, let's acknowledge and applaud a decade of dedicated service that has truly made a positive impact on global healthcare.
