On September 13, 2009, our members dedicatedly served the Chinese community by volunteering their valuable time and effort to participate in the ICMA Free Clinical Consultation, held at Carmel High School.
Dr. Rudy Yung, ophthalmologist, and his IU medical students (Rao Chundury, Jake Trinidad, Jeff Nelson, Paul Withers, Kimberly Matchett, and Frank Hrisomalos) conscientiously performed thorough eye examination including fundoscopic study to screen for ophthalmological disorders among our fellow Chinese, particularly the elderly.
Other participating members included Dr. Jane Chen (dentist), Dr. Xinqiang Han (cardiologist), Dr. Steven He (internist), Dr. Peggy Hu (family medicine), Dr. Siming Hummer (psychiatrist & oriental medicine), Dr. Patrick Lau (radiologist), Dr. Wayne Lee (plastic surgeon), Dr. Mingzhen Li (traditional Chinese medicine), Dr. Zhengbin Lu (pathologist), Dr. Hua Luo (psychiatrist), Dr. Qin Wang-Joy (nephrologist), Dr. Raymond Wong (dentist), Dr. Hillary Wu (medical oncologist), Dr. David Yang (family medicine) and Dr. James Zhang (neurologist).
A large number of attendees turned out for the event. They were, without a doubt, greatly benefited from the services rendered by the various medical specialists and dentists. Screening tests including blood pressure, blood glucose and blood cholesterol were also offered at the consultation.
Dr. Qin Wang-Joy, ICMA president, plans to include more specialties at the next year event. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated. Please contact us at icmaonline@gmail.com.
