As dentists we have unique skills. These skills are actually highly valued by our communities - but that's not always immediately obvious.
Back when I was at Lumino, I oversaw various give
back initiatives
and prior to that worked in a very impoverished community on the East Coast. Recently they reached out....
Would
you like to koha a week of your services to Ngati Porou Hauora? They
would love for you to come and help out. They appreciate that it is asking a lot, but there is a massive need on the coast where
they haven't had a dental service since 2018.
So on 21-25 November 2022, Trinity Koha Dental Service are providing a week's worth of work, (extractions and fillings) in Ruatoria by bringing their mobile vans to the area.
Ngati Porou Hauora are looking for volunteer dentists who can lend a hand at their practice.
