Trek to Nepal
As part of our continuing support of O&P care in Nepal, we are taking another trip in March of 2022. We are opening this trip to all professionals and volunteers in the O&P field.
The trip will be an exploratory service trip. We will spend some time visiting and assisting Nepalese O&P Clinics, while we tour this amazing country.
Our primary goal is education. As travelers you learn about the country while in turn you will be asked to share your knowledge with the orthotic and prosthetic community in Nepal through a group presentation. We will all learn and all enjoy.
Trip Highlights:
-
Tour popular sites in Kathmandu, Pokhara, and more
-
Visit Nepalese prosthetic clinics and connect with colleagues from

Trek with our local guides through the foothills of the Himalayas with breathtaking views and historic cultural destinations
