Ongoing on-site education and program development for the Pediatric Oncology Program in Cambodia
Pediatric Oncology patients in Cambodia. AHC serves as a major referral center for retinoblastoma and hematological malignancies for all of Cambodia. This is part of an ongoing project with which I have been involved since 2018.
The program is now well established, with 120+ new malignancies per year diagnoses at AHC. New collaborative efforts are being established with three other pediatric programs in Cambodia, each with strengths that are complimentary rather than competitive. This work will be ongoing both through our weekly case conferences as well as our ongoing mentorship in research, education and programmatic developement.
Just returned from a wonderful trip to Siem Reap, Cambodia and the Angkor Hospital for Children. It is truly amazing what can be accomplished with limited resources. Attached are some pics from the trip highlighting the colleagues and staff that work tirelessly to advance childhood cancer and hematology care in Cambodia, as well as some of the cultural experiences that I was able to participate in. Lovely trip all around.
