Cosmetic Surgeon Announces
15th Trip To Vietnam
SUMMARY:
A Colorado surgeon has announced
his 15th trip to Vietnam with
his Christian medical relief
non-profit organization, Face
The Challenge. Face The Challenge
was founded 14 years ago to provide
medical care for children with
deformities in developing countries.
Denver, CO (PRWEB) March 1, 2007 – Randolph C. Robinson, MD, DDS, founder of Park Meadows Cosmetic Surgery and Face The Challenge, recently announced his 15th trip to Vietnam beginning on April 25, 2007 and running through May 6, 2007. The goal of this mission will be to provide surgeries with an emphasis on Cranio-maxillofacial trauma and orthognathic (jaw) surgeries.
Face the Challenge is a Christian medical relief non-profit organization that Dr. Robinson, along with his wife Ginger Robinson RN, BSN, founded in 1993. Dr. Robinson, Ms. Robinson, and several other members of the team will operate at the two main maxillofacial hospitals in Ho Chi Minh City, and will provide a variety services during the 10 day trip. The team will perform surgeries on several local patients, determined on a priority basis. Dr. Robinson and the other members will also give lectures to help train the Vietnamese surgeons, to continue the effort long after the team returns to the United States.
“I can’t believe we have
come so far with Face the Challenge,” said
Dr. Robinson, “the Lord has been
faithful to give us this privilege
to help those in need.”
This
trip will also be historic
for them since they anticipate
performing the one thousandth
operation to help children
with facial deformities.
"It's truly amazing to think of all the wonderful people we have helped throughout the years," stated Dr. Robinson. "Knowing we're impacting not just one life, but many lives for generations to come is truly a miraculous gift."
More about cranio-maxillofacial trauma
Cranio-maxillofacial
trauma affects millions of people
that have sustained trauma to the
head or facial area, resulting in
complex fractures which if not correctly
diagnosed and treated, may cause
permanent cosmetic and functional
deformities. Cranio-maxillofacial
trauma surgery is performed to restore
the preinjury facial appearance and
function.
More about orthognathic surgery
Orthognathic
surgery, or corrective jaw surgery,
is the process of correcting the
jaw placement. The procedure requires
the expertise of an oral and Maxillofacial
surgeon. Orthognathic surgery is
usually performed in late adolescence
or early adulthood, after the patient’s
growth spurt has occurred. Typically
orthognathic surgery is performed
to help patients correct jaw deformities
related to disproportionate growth
either in the maxilla (the midface
bone containing the teeth) or in
the lower jaw. Visit http://www.parkmeadowscosmeticsurgery.com/orthognathic.cfm
