Territory Manager joins Bon Secours St. Mary's Team on Medical Outreach Trip

In October, our team member, Lindsey Tuck, had the opportunity to join the Bon Secours team from St. Mary’s Hospital on a medical mission trip to Trujillo, Peru. Dr. Nathan Guerette from the Female Pelvic Medicine Institute, a local Richmond urogynecologist, flew down with the team to the Clinica Madre de Christo to tend to the local patients who needed help.

Medworks partnered with manufacturers we represent to provide necessary equipment for procedures in Peru, including grafts, slings, fixation tools, open instruments, and endoscopes. We are so grateful to NeoMedic, Novo Instruments, Tissue Regenix, and Adler Instrument Company for their contributions to this wonderful mission.

When Lindsey heard about the trip, she immediately knew she wanted to help. When asked why she wanted to join the team, she replied “because my passion is mission work and I found an opportunity where I could use my current job and put it towards something good.” While in Peru, Lindsey was surprised how quickly everyone was able to work together even through a language barrier, and how welcoming the people were. She said, “they probably have the biggest hearts of anyone I’ve ever seen.”

Her favorite part? “Working with the team and being able to build relationships with the Peruvian OR staff to all work together to do something good!”
