Progress

Before November 2007

Before the Medical Center was constructed in November 2007, for many years Lama Rabten Rinpoche had no place to conduct medical consultations and dispense medicine. He often had to diagnose and dispense medicines outdoors.

In June 2007, funds were generated for the purchase of a 4WD vehicle and construction of the Medical Center.

This Four Wheel Drive will be equipped as a mobile medical unit that will deliver medical services to the more remote areas.
