Follow on Google News | Robin Feltoon D.M.D. of Holly Tree Dental Completes Medical Mission in PeruBy: PR First A resident of Plymouth MA, Feltoon joined a group of 15 medical professionals from the Cleveland OH area to serve the poor and underserved people in the Sacred Valley region of the Andes Mountains of Peru. The group included her brother Arnold Feltoon, DMD, who is an Emergency Room Physician in Cleveland, OH. Feltoon is the first dentist to volunteer and provide services through the 6 year old program. Clinics were set up daily in villages, where the volunteers worked without electricity and modern equipment. People, many of whom had never before seen a dentist, lined up for hours for treatment. Feltoon was able to educate the community about dental hygiene by distributing toothbrushes and demonstrating good oral hygiene. The team treated hundreds of patients throughout the course of the mission. As the first dentist in the program Feltoon is currently establishing a protocol for the Peru mission which is an annual event. This is Feltoon’s second mission of the year as she traveled to Hondorus in February. “I am fortunate to have reached a point in my life where I am able to use my talents and education to make a difference in the world,” said Feltoon. “Each mission that I participate in is a rewarding experience and it was a unique experience to volunteer with my brother. It was a pleasure to work with these beautiful people in Peru and hopefully we moved them toward better dental health and a better quality of life.” About Holly Tree Dental From its inception in 1975 Holly Tree Dental has brought the highest level of dentistry and patient services to the South Shore community.
