Empowering Sudanese Surgical Care through Education, Advocacy, and Research
About US
The Sudanese Consortium for Surgical Development is a pioneering organisation dedicated to advancing the field of surgery in Sudan. The SCSD was founded with a vision to achieve high-quality surgical care through education, research, advocacy, and public awareness. Inspired by the legacy of the greatly missed Dr. Mohammed Abbas, a senior surgical registrar whose passion and dedication to the field left an indelible mark on all who knew him, the SCSD is committed to carrying forward his vision and making a lasting impact on the healthcare of Sudan.
