Today is pre clinic day, and the day we meet the children. The dedication and commitment of all the team members is obvious as everyone gets to work. It is amazing to see our team in action, with efficiency, and good humor the team reviewed 162 children before the day was over. Our team quickly bonded with the children, and the children responded with big grins, and friendly waves.
