Dr. Kaye celebrated his birthday with friend and colleague Tilman Stasch deep in the Kenyan savannah.

The first week of March, Dr Kaye was invited to give an Aesthetic Surgery Masterclass at the Aga Khan University Hospital in Nairobi, Kenya.

He went to Africa a couple of days before the event to celebrate his birthday in the exotic surroundings of a Kenyan savannah.

Dr Kaye, Head Surgeon at Ocean Clinic Marbella, will also lead a team of seven doctors and nurses on a trip to Kenya in March to perform life-changing reconstructive surgery on children and adults.

The team will operate on patients with disfigurements such as congenital malformations, tumours, burns, scars, and other deformities.

Organised in collaboration with The Pablo Horstmann Foundation Spain, the nine-day charitable mission is designed to help the poorest families in Lamu, Kenya.

As a rural area with few medical facilities and high levels of poverty, Lamu suffers a particularly precarious health situation. Those who are born with a disfigurement or survive injuries have little chance of receiving adequate treatment and often remain disabled, unable to provide for themselves or their families.

The team aims to treat as many patients as possible during this mission, making it easier for them to live a normal life and hopefully giving them the chance of a brighter future.

Due to lack of facilities, the surgical team will have to supply and transport all necessary equipment. In total, 400 kilos of material. The volunteers give up their time for free, but in addition to this they have to pay for their own flights and accommodation, so it's a big commitment.

Companies and individuals are invited to support the mission, helping to purchase the materials needed and ensure the team can operate on as many patients as possible.

The trip to Kenya follows a similar mission to Peru that Dr Kaye and his colleagues undertook in2013. The team were able to help nearly 60 patients in just nine days, including many children, all of whom have made wonderful transformations. The team hopes to treat just as many patients in Lamu.

i-Marbella has also donated some money to support Dr Kaye's generous initiative. Click HERE to support the mission!
