Eduplast Foundation

Dr. Snyder is an active member of the Eduplast Foundation, which strives to provide reconstructive plastic surgery to at-need populations in underserved countries. She has made numerous mission trips to Nicaragua to provide reconstruction to children and adults with clefts and other congenital anomalies, as well as burns and injuries. Eduplast also seeks to establish training programs in plastic and reconstructive surgery so that care can continue long after the mission teams have gone home.

"Repairing a cleft lip on a child that may not otherwise have the opportunity to live a normal life is one of the most important contributions a plastic surgeon can make," says Dr. Snyder. "The gratitude of these families is nearly overwhelming."

Dr. Snyder plans to continue her work with Eduplast as the program expands into Mongolia.

Drawing patients from areas such as Gillette and Casper, WY, Dr. Snyder also serves Spearfish, Pierre and other South Dakota cities. Contact Dr. Mary Snyder at Black Hills Plastic Surgery by calling (605) 343-7208 or you may request an appointment online.
