Opinions

This event was so exciting. I was thrilled to see so many professionals from all fields of medicine come together with BAPS Charities and help the community. It was beneficial and I highly recommend that everyone in the community should come and take part in this grand event. -Thao Ngo, DDS

I was amazed that such a large function was conducted so well, everything flowed smoothly and the layout was organized. It would always be USC’s pleasure to attend your events. -Kevin Tien
