Doctor Pham Quoc Hung, specialist II, Chairman of the Red Cross Association of Hung Vuong Hospital , Ho Chi Minh City, shared: “Tuyen Quang is a familiar address and a place for us to fulfill our promise of “love returning” to the people here. Many years ago, floods and the Covid-19 epidemic broke out, the whole of Ho Chi Minh City struggled to fight the epidemic, we received support and sharing from the leaders and people of Tuyen Quang province. To repay the gratitude of the people of Tuyen Quang, I and the doctors of the Hospital established a volunteer doctor group, sharing the spirit of volunteerism to participate in examining and treating the poor, near-poor, and disadvantaged people in remote, isolated, and medically disadvantaged areas. Since its establishment, the group has organized many medical examination and treatment programs for the poor people of the province, each time organized in a district”.

I am very happy to have the delegation of doctors and nurses come to my locality to examine and treat me for free. After being examined, the doctors and nurses carefully advised me on how to use each type of medicine. I hope that in the future, the delegation will continue to come to my locality to take care of the health of the people here even more."
