US Surgeon calls out Jamaica’s health infrastructure

Dr Robert Brady, a US-based surgeon and section chief at Norwalk Hospital in Connecticut, is voicing concerns over the state of infrastructure in Jamaica's public health facilities after his team had to postpone a life-changing surgery for an 11-year-old girl.

Dr Brady and his team travelled to Jamaica last week to perform specialised orthopaedic surgeries for children with severe health issues, including scoliosis.
