Our Vision

GEO vision is to provide access to quality ear healthcare for all, especially those affected by poverty and lack of care, by providing humanitarian ear surgery and training in country doctors.

Our Approach

Designing Bone Labs
Teaching surgical skills
Program
development

GEO from the ground up helps design, develop, and build temporal bone labs for teaching purposes in both academic and non academic settings.

From the temporal bone lab where the anatomy of the middle ear is learned to the operating theater where technique is refined, GEO is helping to advance surgical skills.

The GEO advisory network helps build and structure the curriculum for academic training programs in both Otology and Otolaryngology.

Post Doctorate
Fellowships

GEO helps support underserved communities lacking specialists by connecting experienced ENT and otology fellows in needed communities.

Humanitarian  surgery

Many communities are underserved and when it comes to ear disease GEO has provided surgery pro bono for those who lack access and funds for care.
