Once a year, myself and my Father ( who is also a dentist), will embark on a volunteering project. This year, we decided to team up with DentAid and take our skills to the refugee camps in Thessaloniki, northern Greece. Although there is some basic healthcare in the camps there is no dental provision adding to the appalling suffering faced by thousands of people who have fled their homes. Working from a tent and using portable equipment, myself and my father provided pain relieving dental treatment for the adults and children caught up in the humanitarian crisis. I met some fantastic people and gained a great insight into life on a refugee camp. These people are educated, strong and were incredibly grateful for the service my father and i provided. I found the experience challenging but also truly rewarding and humbling and hope the help i provided made some impact to those i treated.
