Updates from the Dr. Jesus A. Datu Medical Center

By Joycelyn A. Datu, MD | Chairperson, Love for Life Foundation

Here is just a sample of our programs. The JADMC schedule of activities is extremely hectic but very rewarding.

our upcoming Harelip/Cleft Palate Surgical Mission will target 150 patients and involve over 50 volunteers
cataract surgeries occur every day, at least five patients per day, and screenings and post-operative checkups occur every Saturday. We lack more eye center equipment and are seeking donations to purchase these
the Prosthetics Rehabilitation Center is underway staffed by volunteers from Arellano University
the Mother Child Charity Clinic continues every Friday
we are now approved by PHILHEALTH, which is one step closer to self-sustainabililty.

The late Dr. Datu will be recognized in a ceremony on the eve of the Fiesta of Bacolor on November 16, 2012, hosted by the mayor and other dignitaries of the municipality.

Thank you for your ongoing support.
