Thanks to the free program "Operation Walk", 37 patients have had knee and hip replacement surgeries, giving them a new lease on life. The program was carried out at the Plaza de la Salud. When presenting the patients who had the surgery, Dr. Luis Alcantara lamented the lack of quality in the Dominican medical system and said that 2,000 people were on the waiting list for similar programs.
