Each year, a group of physicians, nurses, ultrasonographers and volunteers travel to Honduras on a medical service mission sponsored by the Hackett Hemwall Foundation. The week is more than just treating hundreds of Hondurans suffering from severe venous disease; it’s a life changing experience.
The academic experience is invaluable while earning approximately 40 category 1 CME hours via organized lectures, hours of discussions with colleagues and treating severe venous disease. The friendships created are life-long, while the overall experience – priceless.
To learn more about the trip, please read the free article previously published in Vein Magazine. The article “Honduras and Veins, an adventure I wouldn’t miss” can be found online in Vein Magazine.

I am interested in the mission trip in March. I am an ultrasoundtech/sclerotherapist . I would love to participate, given that I have enough PTO and my job is willing to let me go. Can you tell me where we would fly into–I want to check on air fare early. thanks Joy
