The Dr Theodore Dubuque Legacy Society

Ted Dubuque, a St Louis surgeon, first went to Hôpital Sacré Coeur in Milot, Haiti just after it was built in 1986. With over 18 years experience as Chief of Surgery at St. Mary’s Hospital, he recognized the enormous need of the Haitian people. He equipped the operating room and spent six months as a surgical
volunteer.

Over the next 16 years Ted traveled between northern Haiti and St Louis, providing care for the neediest patients, bringing medical specialty teams, procuring supplies and medicines, overseeing the staffing and management of the hospital and setting the standards for patient care. He also initiated fund raising efforts.

In 1993 Ted and his friend, Carlos Reese, founded the CRUDEM Foundation, a 501c3 charity, to sustain and improve Hôpital Sacré Coeur which has become the hospital of choice in Haiti. The Dr. Theodore Dubuque Legacy Society is designed to provide you the opportunity to assist in the continuation of this mission bringing relief to the people of Haiti.
