Residents were lining up as early as 9 o’clock in the morning to avail of the free medical and dental services. Volunteer doctors and staff, led by Dr. Victor C. Bejer and Dr. Wilson E. Ilagan, were there to examine the patients.
MVC volunteers assisted in the registration and crowd control to maintain the peace and order during the event. About 200 residents of Barangay San Miguel benefitted from the medical consultation including young boys and girls that utilized the dental services.
