Mr. Derek Pongi, Premier of Rennell and Bellona Province, has expressed his satisfaction with the China Medical Team’s visit to his province.
“I am very pleased with the China Medical Team’s visit, as it brings much-needed specialized medical services to the people of my province,” said Pongi.
He stated that the mission is a testament to the strong bilateral relations between the two nations and wished the team great success in their endeavor.
The 3rd China Medical Team in the Solomon Islands (CMT) conducted a five-day free medical clinic in Rennell and Bellona Province from February 9-13 at the invitation of the provincial government.
This marked the first visit by the CMT to Rennell and Bellona and the ninth province the team has served since 2022.
Mr. Steward, a resident who received medical care, expressed his deep appreciation for the China Medical Team’s visit.
“We are truly thankful for the China Medical Team’s visit to Rennell and Bellona. They have provided high-quality and professional medical services to our community. We hope they will return in the future to help even more people,” said Steward.
As part of the mission, the CMT also participated in patient consultations. During the visit, Nephrologist Dr. Tang collaborated with local medical personnel to discuss inpatient cases and provide professional medical advice.
Nurse Ambros, who worked alongside the Chinese doctors, shared his gratitude.
“Working with the China Medical Team has been an invaluable experience. I have learned a great deal about clinical diagnosis and treatment, which has greatly benefited my practice. I sincerely thank the team for bringing their expertise to Tigoa Mini Hospital,” said Ambros.
Looking ahead, the China Medical Team remains committed to providing free medical services at the grassroots level, supporting the health and well-being of Solomon Islanders.
