Mission Statement
Most of us take standing straight for granted. But for millions of people in the developing world suffering from spinal deformity—many of them children and young adults living in poverty without access to advanced medical care—standing straight is a distant dream.
About This Cause
“In developing countries like India, there is a great need for spinal care, especially for children,” says Dr. Bains, MD, Standing Straight's chairman and CEO. “But many nonprofits are unable to take on this heavy risk.” Dr. Bains founded Standing Straight to provide these life-saving spinal surgeries to impoverished children in the developing world. He assembled a world-class team made up of surgeons, a neurophysiologist, a pediatric anesthesiologist, an implant specialist, experienced OR nurses, technicians and support staff to execute Standing Straight’s international surgical missions. Together, this comprehensive team mitigates the risks associated with spinal surgeries. Standing Straight transports the most advanced tools and technologies to the international hospitals which host the operations. While in-country, Dr. Bains and his colleagues provide ongoing training to local medical staff. This enables them to provide the highest quality pre- and post-operative care to patients.
