Medical Missions ‘08

Bago Medical and Surgical Mission

The Bago Medical and Surgical Mission last March 1, 2008 was one of the most memorable events the order has sponsored last year. We performed a total of approximately 30 minor surgeries and had a total of approximately 200 patients for the medical check up. We also learned that Mayor Saratan of Silay, Bago City is a fellow Asclepian. He then invited us to have lunch meeting with him sometime.
