East
Timor Social Work
Our medical team at LinC Aesthetic Clinic
is committed to serving the community. Our friendliness and
excellent service is extended to the people around us. we
cross borders to do our work in Timor Leste (East Timor).
In 2006, Dr Patrina Wong went on a medical
trip to the wonderful land of Timor Leste. The aim was to
cooperate with the local doctors to reach out to a bigger
community of people to provide medical aid.
The friendships that were formed with the medical professionals
are still going strong till today.
In March 2008, the compassion for the TL
people continues. Dr Wong made another medical trip to TL,
this time venturing deeper into the land, away from the capital
Dili, and up in the mountainous range of Maubisse, Edi, and
Hato Builico. The team was so privileged to meet with some
important contacts working in the hospital and government
agencies, where we can foster a deeper relationship and cross
cultural and cross exchange of skills and ideas. We conducted
mini Polyclinics, made shift clinics to accommodate simple
medical consultations and dispensing of medicines. The people
there were appreciative of our love for them. We in turn learnt
so much from them – the resilience of harsh natural
elements, the care and bonding for one another. We gained
so much insight into the strength of the people of Timor Leste.
