"Dr. Parry always tries to ensure the scar isn’t the lasting memory of a child’s surgical procedure by surprising them with a hand-drawn dressing!" How nice is this. 🤩 We 💙 seeing medical staff putting children's wellbeing at the forefront of healthcare. 📸 @AkronChildrens

Oral surgery is major surgery and it is just as serious as other kinds of surgery, carrying the same number of risks. 0743104662 | The Dental SPA | The Riverfront, 4th Floor, Riverside Drive at Chiromo, Westlands. #thedentalspake #dentalclinickenya #healthylifetimesmiles

1️⃣ in every 1️⃣6️⃣. That’s how many Afghan children die before their 5th birthday. It’s not fair. 💔 That’s why we're installing an Operating Room in Kabul. Children here will now have access to safe surgery, meaning no more suffering from surgically-treatable conditions. 🇦🇫
