Medical Missions Launch In Davao City

DAVAO CITY, Philippines (Mindanao Examiner / August 19, 2008) – Hundreds of residents have benefited from two medical missions in Davao City in southern Philippines.

The humanitarian outreach missions, a project of House Speaker Prospero Nograles, were held recently in Village 37 and Matina Crossing. Dubbed as Oplan Kalusugan, residents here received free medicines and consultations and dental services and circumcision.

The two activities were also supported by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation and medical teams from the Davao Medical Center, according to the lawmaker’s son, lawyer Karlo Nograles.

He said aside from the free medical services, they also distributed Philhealth cards. (Romy Bwaga)
