Indiana Philippine Medical Association holds medical and dental mission

Kalibo, Aklan – A mission of mercy and of hope will be launched by the Indiana Philippine Medical Association with the Philippine Professionals Association of Indiana, Couples for Christ for Indiana, the Asian American Medical Society, and the UST Medicine Class of 1979 and 1980 on January 22-24, 2007 in selected areas in the Ati-Atihan town of Kalibo including 3 Hospitals where surgeries will be performed.

To avail of the medical and dental surgical services, interested patients may contact the following:

§ Dr. Raymund Quimpo for patients with Cleft Lip, Goiter, Abdominal and Inguinal Hernia Repair, Dental Extractions, and other general and plastic surgery procedures at Dr. Rafael S. Tumbokon Memorial Hospital

§ Ms. Karen Nadate or Ms. Apple Raval for lumps/bumps and circumcision patients at St. Jude Hospital

§ Ms. Pearl Goboy for cataract surgery patients at St. Gabriel Hospital

The free medical and dental checkup, treatment and surgery will benefit Kalibonhons who are unable to afford to pay for hospitals bills or medical insurances for themselves or their family.

“This medical and dental mission will be of great help to our people who have less in life through these kind doctors, nurses, businessmen, and professionals who are living in the United States particularly in Indiana and have sought the time and effort to help out their own countrymen,” said Kalibo Mayor Raymar Rebaldo.

Free consultation and treatment will also be available not only in this town but also in Makato town. Terence Toriano
