In addition to providing high-quality care at EVVF’s main hospital, Dr. Lengmang and his team also deploy mobile medical teams to reach isolated women in rural Nigeria. “Our team is thriving, and we are out fighting the scourge of fistula,” he proclaimed.
Dr. Lengmang found one patient’s story particularly moving: “Her husband could not support her travel to [our main hospital] for surgery, [so] she was exceedingly grateful that we were able to make the trip to [her] village and perform this life-changing surgery. I told her about the Fistula Foundation’s support to us, and she specifically asked that we convey her gratitude to you.”
Fistula Foundation is proud to support Dr. Lengmang’s important work in Nigeria. Dr. Lengmang, thank you for your steadfast dedication to suffering women!
