Operation tuli in Baclayon

Share This Post

The Visayas Primary Health Care Services, Inc. supported the Muncipality of Baclayon in its annual Operation Tuli (circumcision) last May 4, 2011. For several years now, the VPHCS provided the surgical instruments and sent its staff and volunteer nurses and doctors for the activity. More than 200 boys from different barangays in the municipality benefited from the free operation tuli organized under the leadership of Baclayon Mayor Alvin Jayag Uy.

The VPHCS also provided Arnica, a homeopathic remedy for all the boys to alleviate pain and inflammation. The VPHCS staff members have been practicing homeopathy as taught to them by German homeopath Dr. Norbert Enders of the Solidarity Homeopathie in France.

Members of the Students Alliance for Community Health Services (SACHS) also assisted in the yearly activity.
