Small but mighty, ADFA’s volunteer team of five ENT professionals delivered far more than specialist clinical care during their 10-day mission to Madagascar last month; they helped lay the foundations for a more sustainable future for ENT services in the region.

A heartfelt thank you to Dr Latif Kadhim (ENT Surgeon), Sam Last (ENT Registrar), Mei Foong (Anaesthetist), Marika Brandenburg (Nurse), and Alison Cook (Audiologist) for your exceptional commitment, generosity, and dedication of your time and expertise.

Our sincere thanks also to Clinicare Pharmacy, Shenton Park, Word of Mouth Technology Australia, Med-EL Australia, Hearing Australia, Alison Cook, and each and every individual who supported this mission through donations, equipment, and encouragement.

Your impact will be felt far beyond this mission.
