Building on the success of its first mission in Kenya, the team was invited to conduct a training mission at Tanganyika District Hospital in Tanzania in January 2027. The team will again be working with a small group of local surgeons, anesthesiologists and nurses to improve the perioperative care of their head and neck and maxillofacial patients.


Team SEE was created to enhance the education and training of local health care professionals in the perioperative management of their surgical patients. Working in close collaboration with a targeted group of local surgeons, anesthetists, nurses and operating room technicians, our team's goal is to engage in the mutual exchange of knowledge, skills and experiences with our colleagues; to foster equitable partnerships; and to encourage collective problem solving in a low resource setting. We aim to support the local staff in their goals to independently provide safe, sustainable and high quality care to their community. We also partner with local hospital and government officials who share sustainability goals, to ensure the ongoing administrative and financial support of their health care professionals.
