“Mission Brain” provides Neurosurgery for the Needy, Worldwide.

This organization, started by Alfred Quinones MD and Mike Lawton, two well -known Neurosurgeons, provides Neurosurgery, globally, to those of little resources.

Here is their mission statement: “Our mission is to provide patients in need with access to advanced neurosurgical procedures and to educate providers on advancements in neurosurgical technique and care.  We wish to bridge the gap in resources and knowledge between countries and to learn from each other.  Our ultimate goal is to create a network that links more and more surgeons and caregivers to hospitals and patients without the money, equipment or training to treat difficult neurosurgical diseases.  We wish to share the knowledge learned in one system with others in order to join together to treat complicated neurosurgical conditions.”
