OUR MISSION

Help us on
our mission.

OPSA started its life in 1998 after Mr Nick Hart travelled to Pakistan and was involved in some operations with a hospital in Gujrat, Pakistan. Nick could see how great the need was for his expertise that he returned to the UK and set up OPSA.

Children with facial abnormalities and unrepaired clefts live in shame but, more importantly, have difficulty eating, breathing and speaking. the work OPSA does, changes children’s lives, restoring smiles every mission.

Currently, Cleft Hospital Pakistan offers primary cleft surgery, speech and language therapy, audiology, dentistry, and orthodontics, as well as secondary surgery as required. It has taken initiative to provide maxillofacial treatment to the patients and aims to do the same with ENT in the future.

To date, the teams have operated on more than 3000 patients. Approximately 100 to 150 patients receive surgery at each camp of 7 days duration. OPSA can help and we do.
