Thank you Dr. Sie - we are so thankful for your proactiveness to helping us get the best care for our daughter. Sie is very knowledgeable and friendly. I have a high level of confidence in the care she provides my son. She has great "bedside manner" and can communicate well with children and parents too. Sie has seen our daughter Allyson regarding hearing problems she has had since birth. Sie has always been so professional and so good with Allyson - she instilled a high level of confidence in both my Husband and myself and we feel blessed to have had our daughter under her care.

The surgical missions have been ongoing since to provide otolaryngology and facial reconstructive surgery services and to assist in the training of Cambodian medical students and residents.
The focus of these trips is to provide care such as microtia repair, cleft lip and palate repair, complex facial reconstruction, and head and neck cancer surgery that would not otherwise be available to the Cambodian people. Over the years, the group has developed a relationship with Dr. Mok is a faculty member at both medical schools in Cambodia.
The Cambodian medical students and residents participate in the surgical cases and our delegation provides lectures to the medical students and residents to promote their education in otolaryngology and facial plastic surgery. The trip is important because after the reign of the Khmer Rouge and Cambodian genocide from , only twenty-nine physicians survived to serve the entire country.
