In September 2025, HoverAid’s Medical Mission Safari team travelled to Marolambo, where they treated 671 patients through surgery, dentistry, ophthalmology, ultrasound, and consultations — including a life-saving caesarean section that ensured both mother and baby survived. The mission was marked by strong collaboration with local hospital staff and brought vital medical care to people who had travelled from far and wide.

The MMS mission to Nosy Varika faced travel challenges, bad weather, and fewer patients due to a recent festival, but the team still carried out major surgeries and provided essential care for those who came from far away.

This second of the Ambatolahy mission this year saw a significantly higher number of patients than the one in March, with many travelling from Malaimbady, 70km away.

The MMS team carried out over 500 consultations, surgeries, and urgent care - including treatment for tuberculosis, bilharzia, and complex surgical cases - while navigating serious security risks and limited infrastructure.

A successful MMS mission in Ampasinambo overcame weather and logistical challenges, treated malaria and other urgent cases, and marked a new chapter of strong local collaboration.

The recent MMS in Belo-sur-Tsiribihina was successfully carried out despite logistical challenges and a serious equipment malfunction during surgery, with preparations already underway for the next mission to Sahakevo.
