Hurricane Katrina Disaster Relief Sept 2005

Our 6-man surgical team flew into New Orleans just after the storm. We triaged at New Orleans International airport, which was basically only flying helicopters for rescue missions. We performed surgery tendon repairs at the Pete Marivich Center in Baton Rouge. Even relocated 5 families (21 people) back to North Carolina with Operation Blessing.  NASCAR & Joe Gibbs Racing Team provided transport for us between Louisiana & Fayetteville.
