For over ten years, Dr. Peña has been participating in life-altering medical missions. These missions consist of full surgical and recovery teams, specializing in children and their congenital deformities such as clef lip and palate. Dr. Peña and the medical team perform this much-needed, life-changing surgery on children and young adults over the course of one and two-week missions.

West African Mission

During each visit Dr. Peña donated his surgical expertise and performed over 35 surgeries repairing critical birth defects such as cleft lips and acquired defects including traumas, tumors and infections. Additionally, he performed several skin-grafting procedures to help burn victims and teach current reconstructive techniques to medical staff at the local university.
