MEDICAL MISSION TRIPS

On January of 2013 Dr. De La Cruz started his medical/surgical mission trip in The Philippines at Nueva Ecija to help impoverished children with cleft lip and cleft palate. The medical mission with Operation Bayanihan had seen over 425 patients PER DAY, and we performed over 22 surgical cases PER DAY despite our limited medical/surgical supplies and one to two available anesthesiologists.  They desperately needed our help.

During our last mission trip in Antique, Philippines this February 2015, our medical team had seen over 3,000 patients and our surgical team performed over 300 procedures.  The surgical-medical mission was a success.

Help us help others. Please join us with our mission to help the impoverished children in the Philippines.
