Hazard was intervened at the Dallas Carrell Clinic, in the state of Texas, in the southern United States. The person in charge of carrying out the operation was the renowned Dr. Eugene Curry. The Belgian traveled to the Americas on Wednesday, accompanied by his father, Thierry, and by the head of the white club's medical services, Niko Mihic.
