What a difference a day makes. Our patients often experience mobility they haven’t had in years sometimes just a day after joint replacement surgery. One surgery can change a life. Find out how you can help in our mission to restore mobility. operationwalk.org/donate/

Sometimes all you need is a smile and a gentle touch to let you know that everything is going to be alright. Our volunteers are always there to reassure our patients during every step of their process to regain their mobility. #teamworktuesday

It's #nationalmilkchocolateday! One of our favorite moments in Cuba happened during our 2015 mission when we celebrated our patient's hard work and success with chocolate cigars! Thanks See's Candies for the chocolate.

It may be a long road, but every journey starts with a single step. Remembering our patients from around the world and their first step towards a new life. #MondayMotivation

"OpWalk started 29 years ago as the brain child of one of our mentors, Dr. Lawrence D. Dorr. He had the idea of sending a highly trained team to different locations, quickly and safely transforming the lives of people with hip and knee arthritis." Dr. John Kumar #TeamworkTuesday
