About Us
Operation Smile Vietnam opened its first Comprehensive Care Center in March in collaboration with the Hospital of Odonto-Stomatology of Hue and the Health Service Department of Thua Thien Hue. The center provides year-round comprehensive care by locally-based teams of Operation Smile–trained and credentialed medical professionals in the fields of plastic surgery, dentistry, pediatrics and speech pathology, and also provides psychosocial services to patients and their families. The center also will enable Operation Smile Vietnam to continue to develop its craniofacial and micro-surgery programs and will provide education and training to medical professionals in Thua Thien Hue and neighboring provinces. This is the first of three centers planned for Vietnam; the others will be located in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. Now in its sixth year, Operation Smile Vietnam’s fund-raising event, the Auction of Contemporary Vietnamese Art, raised enough funds to provide approximately 800 children with cleft lip or cleft palate surgery. Sponsored by Unilever Vietnam, and co-sponsored by Phoenix Voyages and GlobalSantaFe Engineering, the evening was a resounding success. The event has become one of the signature black-tie evenings on Ho Chi Minh City's social calendar.
