Monday January 18, 2010 Dr. Vanek is busy with surgery cases at the Mentor Surgery Center, seeing his patients at the office, returning numerous phone calls and television interviews.
We began collecting donations via the phone and in person supports come in with boxes and boxes of medical supplies (gauze, syringes, medicine, baby clothes, etc). Several volunteers were called in to help with the shipping needs for such an unbelievable display of medical items that filled three shipping pallets.
Dr. Vanek meets Jean Kurdas, RN and Theresa Jackson, RN whom are traveling to Haiti with him. Dr. Jack Fitzgerald came to our office to coordinate with Dr. Vanek the last minute details of their trip.
Tuesday January 19, 2010 Dr. Vanek leaves Cleveland airport for a flight to Miami, Florida. The connecting flight to Haiti was missed and the team had an overnight stay in Miami.

Bless you for helping…
To start, allow me to point out that your internet site is fantastic. I love the theme that you have. It was very easy on the eyes. Appreciate your article too. Definitely subscribed to your feed to make sure I won’t be missing out on any updates. Excellent job! Toast to a productive business
Dr. Vanek,
This is just a quick note to follow up on your visit to Haiti and the efforts of your team. I can’t tell you how amazed I was with the courage, dedication, selflessness and professionalism you and your staff exhibited in your work to provide critical medical care after the earthquake.
It was truly a pleasure to assist you and your team where we could. I don’t know if you remember us, but we gave you and your team and the 700-800 lbs of equipment you had rides to the Community Hospital (Porte au Prince) and coordinated for what security we could provide for you and your team. The efforts of your team are an experience that I continue to hold up as nothing short of “heroic” and I hope I get a chance to follow up with you back in Miami someday.
I am currently on leave in Miami from 6-17 March, and will be back at SOUTHCOM, off the Haiti rotation, in May. I hope I have the opportunity to thank you and your team in person.
Thanks again, your efforets were truly remarkable.
