in my hometown of chicago. dr. daniel ivankovich is an orthopedic surgeon who has seen it all. broken bones. twisted knees. bad backs. dislocated joints. all treatable conditions, but for those living in the roughest neighborhoods, treatment isn't easy. they don't have a lot of money. they're on medicaid and they don't have insurance. so their told to wait. month months, sometimes years would go by while they lived in pain and their conditions worsened. dr. dan said, enough is enough. and co-founded the onepatient global health initiative which runs three clinics and performs more than 600 surgeries a year. many of them for free.
