• Hundreds of children received free examinations and surgeries at Hospital 1A.

A team of doctors from the Tokyo Smile Foundation and Dalhousie University visited Hospital 1A.

This marks the first collaboration between the hospital and the Tokyo Smile Foundation, Dalhousie University. The delegation consists of 16 doctors and medical staff from both organizations. Hospital 1A has collaborated numerous times with international organizations over the years to provide free examinations and surgeries for children with congenital deformities, burn scars, cleft palates, and other cleft lip and palate issues. Through these meaningful healthcare programs, thousands of underprivileged children from disadvantaged families with congenital deformities, burn scars, and cleft palates have received free surgery and been given the opportunity for a brighter future.

MSc. Dr. Ngo Anh Tuan - Deputy Director in charge of the hospital, worked with the delegation.

Dr. Ngo Anh Tuan, Deputy Director of the Hospital, held a meeting with the delegation. During the meeting, Dr. Ngo Anh Tuan expressed his sincere gratitude to the two organizations for their cooperation with the Hospital and for the kind sentiments the medical team showed towards underprivileged children in Vietnam. Professor Takeshi Uchiyama, representing the Tokyo Smile Foundation, and Professor Jean Charles Doucet from Dalhouse University also expressed their appreciation for the warm welcome and their desire to continue cooperating with the Hospital in the coming years.
