Operation of Hope Mission to Zimbabwe - October 2009
Dr. Dean volunteers his time to help children around the world each year by performing cleft lip and palate surgery, burn reconstruction and other procedures. "The experience is priceless and not only makes a difference in the lives of the families involved, but keeps me grounded with a proper perspective about what is truly important in life."
One of CNN's shows, "Inside Africa", features videos of this experience.
