Northbrook Doctor Provides Care for Patients in Africa

Dr. Warren Bruehl, a Northbrook resident and licensed chiropractor, recently returned from his ninth mission with Dreamweaver International, having helped deliver healthcare to Kenya, East Africa.

During the effort, chiropractic care was provided for more than 2,000 patients.

A community post on the Chicago Tribune shows Bruehl has helped more than 80,000 children in 25 countries with his Gear for Goals project, which delivers “sports and hope to needy kids around the world.”

Bruehl is a director for Dreamweaver International, a non-profit based in Northbrook with “a long and successful history of dramatic accomplishment in East Africa.” The focus of Dreamweaver’s Kenya outreach in 2015 is to provide free medical care to the underserved population in the KImana Rift Valley, educating doctors and other health care workers at the local hospital and to build Kilimanjaro Mission Hospital on Dreamweaver’s 10-acre campus.

When completed, Kilimanjaro Mission Hospital will help over a half million Maasai and other Africans have access to life saving medicine, surgery, chiropractic, physical therapy, dentistry, and other services.
