Florida Cardiac Surgery Team to Gaza
During the First Week of the Aqsa
Intifada, the PCRF sent an 8-member team of adult cardiac
surgeons from Fort Lauderdale went to the Gaza Strip to do
open heart surgery on sick patients. For the first week, they
treated gunshot victims, but the second week did many operations
on patients with heart disease. The PCRF also shipped with
the team $300,000 worth of donated medical supplies. Led by
Dr. Imad Tabry
(see Board
of Directors), the PCRF will send this team again to Gaza.
