World Pediatrics’ Diagnostic Cardiology, Neonatal Training Teams Return to St. Vincent

Kingstown, St. Vincent & the Grenadines – On March 23rd and 24th 2026, World Pediatrics hosted their Physical and Occupational Therapy Team in St. Vincent and the Grenadines for their 2-day clinic. The clinic provided essential therapy to children with concerns ranging from hemiplegia, brachial plexus, post-surgery rehabilitation, as well as genetic and neurological disorders affecting daily living, mobility and gait. Twenty-two (22) Vincentian children were evaluated over the two-day period at the Milton Cato Memorial Hospital by Physical Therapist, Michelle Froede, and Occupational Therapist, Jessica Lynn.

They were provided with local assistance from Physical Therapist, Janelle Ballah at MCMH. Following closely behind the Physical and Occupational Therapy team, World Pediatrics’ Cardiology team held a 2-day clinic on March 26th and 27th 2026 at MCMH. The team was led by pediatric cardiologist Dr. William Moskowitz who was joined by pediatric cardiologist, Dr. Adarsh Kulkarni and local pediatrician, Dr. Shari-Ann Davis-Andrews.

The team evaluated seventy-seven (77) Vincentian children with known or suspected heart abnormalities, providing diagnostic assessments. This helps guide treatment plans, surgical referrals, and long-term care strategies for some of the children. Both teams expressed deep appreciation for the opportunity to serve the Vincentian community, highlighting the warmth and resilience of the people they encountered.

Both teams were graciously sponsored by the Mustique Charitable Foundation. World Pediatrics extends its fervent appreciation for this invaluable support which plays an integral role in our goal to provide access to advanced medical care for our Caribbean children and families.
