Patient of the Month: Marquez

Published on: 07/28/2022

For years, Marquez suffered from a medical condition that affected his mobility in his home country of Jamaica. The condition became so severe that the little boy was walking on the sides of his feet.

Marquez's mother brought him to Nicklaus Children's Hospital, where he was diagnosed with club foot. With the help of generous donors, Marquez was able to undergo life-changing surgery to remove some of the scar tissue and start to realign his joints.

He is on the path to hope and healing today and continues to see a team of specialists at Nicklaus Children's for physical therapy.
