We’re excited to announce that as of September 2, 2024, our Dominican Republic site has officially received its operating permit and medication license from the Dominican Republic's Ministry of Health! This monumental achievement allows us to fully open and provide on-site primary care, surgical services, and more—bringing us closer to making history and delivering life-changing care to our patients. A heartfelt thank you to our partners, donors, volunteers, and teammates whose tireless work and support over the last four years has led to this success. This victory exemplifies our values of Responsibility, Compassion, and Spirit of Service. Together, we continue to build a healthier tomorrow! #HealthForAll #GlobalHealth #SurgicalCare #OneWorldSurgery #DominicanRepublic #HealthcareMilestone #NonProfitSuccess #CompassionInAction #SpiritOfService #MakingADifference

Igniting the spirit of service & transforming lives by providing access to quality surgical and primary care globally.
Über uns
High-quality surgical and primary care, coupled with training, education, and a continuum of care delivers life-changing outcomes, both to patients and participants in our ongoing mission. One World Surgery is a nonprofit confronting this global health crisis by partnering with communities, healthcare providers, and leaders in healthcare to deliver surgical services. Our vision is a world with safe, timely, and accessible surgical care. The impact of surgical intervention is unlike any other health intervention. Surgery can cure 1/3 of all human illness and disease and can almost immediately change a person’s life. In chronically underfunded health systems, surgical care is ignored and widely inaccessible to the poor. Local facilities lack appropriate supplies and equipment. Medical professionals do not have training in the latest techniques. Few can afford the high cost of surgery. Patients often arrive at our center desperate for a solution. They have tried every avenue imaginable, but surgical care is dauntingly unavailable in their country. The impact of our work is immediately apparent when patients leave our facility—not only physically healed but with a renewed sense of hope for the future.
