Physicians for Peace
Physicians for Peace programs are now a part of ReSurge International—a global surgery nonprofit with over 55 years of experience delivering safe, timely, and life-changing reconstructive surgical care in low-income countries.
The Physicians for Peace (PFP) legacy will live on through ReSurge’s proven service model, which exponentially expands access to surgery by training local in-country medical teams, treating patients, and building sustainable health systems across Latin America, Africa, and Asia. By integrating PFP’s core programs into our global infrastructure, ReSurge is not just continuing their impact—we’re amplifying it.
We warmly welcome Physicians for Peace supporters into the ReSurge family and look forward to getting to know you! Together, we are building a stronger, more united movement to close the global surgical gap.
