OUR MISSION
Operation Walk is an all- volunteer medical humanitarian organization that provides the gift of mobility through life-changing joint replacement surgeries at no cost for those in need in the U.S. and globally. It was founded in 1996 by leading orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Lawrence D. Dorr, who desired to use his skills to help impoverished people suffering and disabled from joint-related conditions.
Dr. Dorr and his team put all the pieces together to perform successful missions in all parts of the world. Over the past 21 years, Operation Walk has performed hip and knee replacement surgery for more than 17,000 individuals in 25 countries.
