The ICMA Free Consultation started promptly at 1:00PM, April 18, 2010 in Room 165 at the IUPUI Engineering Building. Physician members representing Family Medicine were Dr. Peggy Hu; Diagnostic Radiology, Dr. Gonz Chua; Radiation Oncology, Dr. Benny Ko; Dentistry, Dr. Jane Chen; Cardiology, Dr. Xinqiang Han; Neurology, Dr. James Zhang; and two volunteer nurses from Dr. Peggy Hu's office. Dr. Hong Ma, a recently licensed physician, was also on board.

Approximately 24 patients with dental problems, medical problems like hypertension, osteoporotic fractures were seen. They were all in stable condition. Blood pressure measurements and glucose levels were also obtained. Appropriate consults and instructions for follow up with their respective practitioners were given.

The clinic ended at 3:00PM followed by a short meeting and assessment of the day's activity. It was felt to be successful with a good turnout. Plans in the future to attract the underserved restaurant workers were discussed. The group ended the day with a group picture for a job well done. My sincere thanks to the members of ICMA for their efforts.

ICCCI Chinese School at Carmel High School

October 17, 2010, 1pm - 3pm

 

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.
