Over 200 children were scheduled for evaluations by our volunteer Surgeons, Anesthesiologists, Pediatricians, Speech Pathologist, Orthodontist, Nurses, and Staff. Over the course of a 14-hour day, 221 patients were examined. Sadly, not all of the children can be treated, but for the over 100 children that were approved, it will be their new beginning.
