Faith • Healing • Service • Together
Healing. Hope. The Love of Christ.
The Cameroon Surgical Care Mission brings together healthcare professionals to provide specialized surgical and medical care in partnership with the Central Hospital of Yaoundé.
Through this collaboration, CMANA serves patients throughout the Yaoundé region while working alongside local healthcare professionals and institutions to expand access to specialty care.
Specialized Care Where It Is Needed
The mission focuses on surgical and specialty care for patients who may face limited access to certain medical services.
Our teams work alongside local providers to evaluate patients, perform procedures, and provide consultations across a range of specialties.
By bringing together professionals from different areas of medicine, the mission allows us to respond to a broad spectrum of surgical and medical needs within the community.
A Mission Built on Collaboration
Working Side by Side
An important part of the Cameroon mission is the opportunity to work side by side with local healthcare professionals.
Our visiting teams bring their clinical experience while learning from the providers who know the community best. This exchange creates opportunities for collaboration, shared problem-solving, and strengthening relationships between healthcare professionals and institutions.
Surgery With Lasting Impact
For many patients, access to surgical care can mean more than treating a medical condition – it can mean improved function, greater independence, and a better quality of life.
Our surgical teams work to provide compassionate, high-quality care while supporting the local healthcare infrastructure and the professionals who continue caring for patients long after the mission concludes.
Learning & Sharing Knowledge
Education is an important part of the Cameroon mission, creating opportunities for our visiting healthcare professionals to share knowledge and learn alongside their local colleagues.
Each mission day begins with a continuing education lecture for local healthcare professionals, with a total of five lectures throughout the mission. These sessions create a space for discussion, learning, and exchange of experience around clinical topics relevant to the care being provided.
This educational component allows the mission to extend beyond the patients seen during the week, supporting the healthcare professionals who continue serving their communities long after the CMANA team returns home.
Growing Through Partnership
A Partnership That Continues
The Cameroon mission is made possible through our partnership with the Central Hospital of Yaoundé.
With each mission, CMANA continues to build upon this relationship, better understand the needs of the community, and identify opportunities to expand surgical and specialty services.
Our goal is to combine direct patient care with collaboration and education to help strengthen healthcare in the communities we serve.
Who Can Serve?
The Cameroon Surgical Care Mission brings together healthcare professionals with a range of surgical and medical expertise. Each member of the team plays an important role in providing comprehensive care, supporting local providers, and contributing to the mission’s educational efforts.
Our teams may include professionals in
anesthesiology, cardiology, gastroenterology, general surgery, internal medicine, orthopedic care, pharmacy, and urology.
By bringing these specialties together, the mission creates a collaborative environment where healthcare professionals can serve patients, learn from one another, and work alongside local colleagues.

Beyond the Numbers
The numbers tell only part of the story.

Through surgical care, clinical collaboration, and continuing education, CMANA continues to build meaningful partnerships and expand access to specialized healthcare in Cameroon.
