The Surgery Ship
The Surgery Ship (2017)
A unique hospital ship offering lifesaving surgery sets sail for the poorest of the poor in Africa. They have just one year to do the impossible - to provide the care these people cannot get any other way. On board are volunteer doctors and nurses - now headed straight for the biggest medical and ethical challenges of their lives. Ahead lies unbelievable illnesses, many they have never seen outside of textbooks. A dramatic journey is underway as they deal with life and death cases and balance the fates of patients in their hands.

The volunteer medics continue to treat extraordinary cases of medical need. Featured patients include Maimouna - a 17-year-old past patient whose a facial tumour has now returned, Ignace - a teenage boy with a neurofibroma tumour which covers half his face, and young twins with identical bowed legs. Maimouna's journey to the ship is dramatic as ship doctor Nerida, who operated on Maimouna four years ago with Surgeon Tertius, travels to Guinea, which has only recently been cleared of Ebola, to find Maimouna and bring her to the ship for critical surgery.
