Ear surgery for Cambodian poor.


May 2009. A specialized international ear surgical team from the organization IMPACT (UK) carried out an operative mission with Operation FIRST-Rose Charities at Chea Chumneas hospital primarily for Cambodian poor. 40 patients with hearing problems were screened and 12 operations performed using highly specialized equipment donated by IMPACT.

The mission is the latest in the continuing program of visits by international teams and experts who come both to teach and provide surgeries mainly for the poor. Rose Charities has welcomed such vists since its inception in 1998 and, together with Operation FIRST is hugely appreciative of those donate time and resources to do so.
