Charitable Trip to Vietnam
Five plastic surgeons recently traveled to Vietnam to perform reconstructive surgery on burn victims for charity. The charitable organization Interplast Australia & New Zealand (IANZ) funded the trip. The goal of the trip was to help these burn victims who were too poor to pay for surgery. In addition, the surgeons practiced alongside local Vietnam doctors to share information and techniques.
"It's very good to teach and to help [Vietnamese medical staff] and the doctors here are very keen to learn. Vietnamese are very good [with] their hands and the surgeons here are very good and quick to learn" explains one IANZ doctor to the Thanhnein News.
The charity project has been sending surgeons every year to perform these free surgeries. The hope is to help the public while also training local doctors on new technology. Plastic surgeons are able to exchange ideas across the globe and help develop the practice of the other.
