"Every year, I get frustrated. I get tired. I get sore, and I say 'This is my last year.' But then I go, and I get up at 5 in the morning and work until midnight ... on my feet all the time. And then when I finally sit down, I realize I could do this another year." --Gerald Tamayo, volunteer doctor in Philippines
Doctors Going the Extra Mile
Every year, about 160 Filipino born doctors in California, pack-up and head to the Philippines to provide free medical services, including medication and operations, for the indigent. This year, 160 of them made the trip and saved many lives.
