The mobile clinic event I had the chance to be a part of recently with Oakland High School in Tennessee was tremendous. Every time I participate in mobile clinic outreach I am constantly amazed at how deserving and appreciative the children are. With this event, 90% of the students we saw on the clinic need glasses. In fact, it was amazing that some of them have been able to learn up until now without having any vision correction!

Dr. Amanda Berry did an amazing job. She donated her time and built a rapport with the kids that was wonderful to witness. I look forward to hopping on the mobile clinic again soon!
