Mercy Ships - Lorraine Montgomery

“When I was 12, I saw a woman on TV… her husband had burned her with acid - her face had become fused to her neck, so she could never look a person in the eye. There was not one plastic surgeon to help her in Benin. That’s when I chose my profession…”

This is Dr Odry Agbessi, Benin’s first and only plastic surgeon. She is being mentored by our experts on the Africa Mercy, so she can hone her skills and better serve her country. We're all about leaving a powerful legacy in each country we visit.https://www.mercyships.org.uk/donate/
