"The Pat Hick Community Center & Clinic "

Finally we have begun a much waited new project.

As you can see in these photos we have run the water lines and started digging the foundation to what will be The Pat Hick Community Center & Clinic.

Pat passed away from cancer in the fall of 2008 but loved coming to Ometepe on medical teams several years in a row with her husband Dr. Joe. We wanted to honor her with a clinic dedicated to her memory and the dream is alive!
