A Day of Service: Healthcare Professionals Volunteer at Free Medical Clinic

(Ito Conti & Ike Pahm)

Last Saturday, March 22, 2025, a dedicated team of healthcare professionals and volunteers made a significant impact at the Philippine Center Free Medical Clinic. Dr. Oscar Toledo, Dr. Carol Conti, Lucy Sloan, Deanna Cruz, and Christine Hey, all members of the University of the Philippines Alumni Association of Wisconson (UPAA-W), generously offered their time and expertise to support the clinic’s mission of providing free medical care to those in need. The clinic, which is headed by the esteemed Dr. Volette Singson, serves as a vital resource for the community, offering a range of medical services to underserved populations.

March is a special month for the clinic as it marks UPAA-W month, a time when UPAA-W members come together to support the clinic’s efforts. This annual event highlights the commitment of alumni and volunteers to improving healthcare access and making a positive difference in the community.

Dr. Toledo and Dr. Conti brought their extensive medical knowledge and experience, ensuring that patients received high-quality care and attention. Lucy Sloan, Deanna Cruz, Christine Hey, and other volunteers played crucial roles in assisting with patient intake, managing medical records, and providing compassionate support to all who visited the clinic. Their collective efforts helped to create a welcoming and efficient environment, allowing the clinic to serve a large number of patients throughout the day.

The Philippine Center Free Medical Clinic is committed to improving the health and well-being of the community, and the contributions of volunteers like Dr. Toledo, Dr. Conti, Lucy Sloan, Deanna Cruz, and Christine Hey are invaluable to achieving this goal. Under the leadership of Dr. Volette Singson, the clinic continues to make a positive difference in the lives of many, offering hope and healing to those who need it most.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to these dedicated individuals for their selfless service and unwavering commitment to the health of our community.
