          A total of 118 patients out of 153 from Victorias, Talisay and Murcia who came for the pre-screening on August 14, 2018 were cleared for major surgery for the NIKKI CARES LIBRE NGA OPERASYON on October 4 to 6, 2018 at the Teresita Lopez Jalandoni Provincial Hospital  in Silay City.

          The free surgical mission is organized by Dominique “Nikki” Lopez Benitez, wife of Third District Congressman Alfredo Benitez who has started to conduct medical missions in various parts of the country more than two decades ago, in partnership with volunteer groups and the Betty Bantug Benitez Foundation, Inc.

Asuncion Manalastas;  and surgeons Jan Peter Posio,  Joaquin de la Cruz Manalastas, and Michelle Angela Anievas – all from Makati Medical Center. Joining them was local EENT Dr. Ma. Elaine Parreñas.
