Welcome to the 6th annual Vietnam Pharmacy/Medical Mission. This journey began in 2012 and has continued each year with the gracious and generous support from Temple University School of Pharmacy, Dean Peter Doukas, Faculty and Administration. Each year I am accompanied by TUSP Doctor of Pharmacy Candidates, who get to experience, first-hand, global healthcare and provide their energy helping to assist the needy.

Travel and "light" reading
This year our journey started in Philadelphia with a 3 hour bus ride t JFK airport. From there, we boarded EVA airline and flew 15.5 hours to Taipei Taiwan for a 2 hour layover. We continued on to Saigon on an additional 4 hour flight and landed at 10:00am on May 23. This type of travel is not for the faint of heart. As you can see, I have assign some "light" reading to the students and at least one of them "attempted" to take advantage of some down time. A valiant effort from Sydney to begin her evaluation of the medical literature, however, at 35000 feet altitude and close to 24 hours of flying takes a toll, and thus her attempt at journal club.
