Sharing His Time and Talent Jim Lehman OPC ’54 writes, “Since 2004, I have continued to go to Chile on a yearly basis with a team of 10-12 medical personnel to do surgery, working with our Chilean counterparts. It has been a very rewarding experience, and we now have a group of very close friends in Chile. The program is supported by Rotary, which is a key component of our success. We perform 60-90 surgeries each year and see many of the patients in follow-up the next year. In addition to Chile, I have also gone to Bolivia and China, again with the support of Rotary. I can truly say it has been a fantastic opportunity and I have enjoyed all of the experiences, including one earthquake (2010). Recently at the request of our Chilean surgeons and the Department of Health, we have helped develop a program to train surgeons in breast reconstruction.”
