Coalition doctors treat more than 200 Afghan citizens
ISAF: KABUL, Afghanistan – Special Operations Task Force – East medical personnel participated in a multi-national free clinic for Afghans at the Korean Hospital on Bagram Air Field, Jan. 29.
More than 200 local men, women and children were treated by doctors from Afghanistan, Korea, United Arab Emirates and the U.S. Army’s 404th Civil Affairs Battalion and Special Operations Task Force – East.
“The Korean hospital is normally closed today,” said Lt. Col. Dan Godbee, battalion surgeon, Special Operations Task Force – East. “The medical personnel came in on their day off and donated time; some of the doctors drove in from Kabul.”
The event represents a turning point for groups of coalition doctors providing treatment together, Godbee said.
The combined-group included a cardiologist, urologist, gynecologist, general practitioners and physical therapists that treated patients from babies a few months old to grandparents in their sixties.
