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.

Finished Clinic in Ben Tre
We worked for a total of 8 and ½ days in Ben Tre clinic. This is always our first and one of my favorites sites to do clinic. The staff is so helpful organizing and assisting in everything we request and it is an actual clinic so the facilities are conducive to medical treatment, including having an onsite X-ray machine. During the farewell thank you ceremony, The leaders of Ben Tre and the clinic offered these words to our team, “We have hosted many charity work teams in the past, and OUR team works the hardest, and provides the most effective treatment of all. They thank us for our hard work each and everyday, especially during a few very very hot days. They worry about our health because we arrive early, treat poor patients all day and leave late in the day. They want to continue to strengthen and grow our mutual relationship of treating needy and poor patients in Ben Tre.
Totals for Ben Tre: 921 orthopedic patients and 291 prostheses and braces.
