But with his practice suspended because of the coronavirus crisis, Senderoff wants to help colleagues on the front lines of fighting the virus in the city’s hospitals, where healthcare workers are trying to keep up with a flood of new patients. He also has an office anesthesia machine that can be converted into a ventilator.
“We’re sitting on the sidelines right now,” Senderoff said of himself and his fellow plastic surgeons. “But we’re a resource. We all have general surgery experience. We have ICU experience. There’s hundreds of us just sitting around, waiting for the call,” he said in an interview. The plastic surgeons society has launched an online clearinghouse for equipment and supplies to hospitals in need. Since then, it has received over 150 offers to donate supplies and equipment, including for about 40 ventilators, according to Adam Ross, a spokesman for the group.
