About the Honduras Mission

The NSF Honduras mission team will travel to the One World Surgery – SCA Holy Family Surgery Center located on the 2,000 acre ranch of the children’s home Nuestros Pequeños Hermanos (NPH). NSF will be the first team to bring spine surgery to the center – a very exciting prospect for us and the people of Tegucigalpa, Honduras. Our primary focus will be adult degenerative spine cases; and, as our mission program progresses at this site, we hope to bring in local residents, fellows and medical students to create teaching opportunities and build a sustainable spine treatment program.
