Global Surgical Expedition

Global Surgical Expedition is a U.S.-based nonprofit medical mission organization focused on expanding access to essential surgical care in underserved countries. The organization deploys volunteer surgical teams, donates equipment, trains local clinicians, supports global surgery education, and conducts research related to surgical disease and urologic conditions. Its work has included programs in Central America and Africa, with recurring emphasis on urology, urogynecology, pelvic floor care, and broader surgical capacity building. Rather than developing drugs or therapeutics, GSE operates as a care-delivery and surgical infrastructure organization. The group appears active as of 2026 and is headquartered in Glen Allen, Virginia.
