About Bones Pro Bono

Imagine a world where everyone, regardless of their geographical location or socio-economic status, has access to quality medical care. BPB’s mission is to help underserved international populations who struggle to receive specialized care for their upper and lower limbs. By providing expert orthopedic and podiatric surgeries, BPB aims to bridge the global healthcare gap, particularly in areas where it’s desperately needed — increasing access to medical care and empowering individuals to regain their independence, resume their daily activities, and live healthier lives.

BPB’s first surgical mission was to Danang, Vietnam in 2010. Since that time, hundreds of lives have been changed for the better. All of BPB’s surgeons are experts within their respective medical fields, and all are committed to philanthropy, teaching, and global social equity.

As stated in the BPB mission statement — “To extend a healing hand to underserved international populations by providing specialized extremity care and performing life changing orthopedic and podiatric surgery regardless of economic or geographic status.”
