On a warm day in Nogales, Ariz., Dr. Glen Baird is helping kids better enjoy their lives.

This is no ordinary day for Baird. He is not a resident of Nogales, nor a resident of the state. Yet, every couple of months he flies down to Nogales from Spokane, Wash. to volunteer at St. Andrew's Children's Clinic.

Baird, the assistant chief of staff at the Shriners Hospital for Children in Spokane, has been volunteering at the clinic for over eight years.

“Shriners got involved with (St. Andrew's) four months before I was hired,” he said. “I speak Spanish so it’s kind of natural that I would come down here.”

Shriners hospitals deal solely with pediatric orthopedic medicine. Children up to the age of 18 are treated by doctors like Baird in top of the line hospitals with up-to-date equipment.

The partnership that St. Andrew's has made with Shriners, allows doctors like Baird to help children who live in great poverty to receive the same quality care.

Every two months, Baird and and nurse Diane Huffman attend the clinic to meet with his patients.

Because of his specialty, Baird’s patients must have an appointment in order to meet with him. On the day of the October clinic, 20 patients were scheduled to meet with him.

The clinic opened at 9 a.m. and by 10:20 a.m., he had already seen four patients.

“It’s crazy like this all day,” he said. “It is just a constant flow. But it’s great, it’s fun.”

During this time, Baird sees patients that will come to Spokane for surgery, or who have already come and are attending the clinic for a follow up.

"It's crazy. Some of these kids come in and I don't recognize them," said Baird. "They get so big."

During the first week of October KXLY-TV in Spokane produced a story about the Clinic and the work of Dr. Baird.
