Summary edit

Description
English: Tawi Tawi, Philippines (June 15, 2006) - Capt. Warlito Chee, a Philippine Marine doctor and Manila native with the Medical Treatment Facility aboard the U.S. Military Sealift Command (MSC) Hospital Ship USNS Mercy (T-AH 19), works with Dr. Enriquez, a volunteer from the city, to remove a tooth from a patient during a Medical Civil Action Project (MEDCAP), while the ship visits the city on a scheduled humanitarian mission. The medical crew aboard Mercy will provide general and ophthalmology surgery, basic medical evaluation and treatment, preventive medicine treatment, dental screenings and treatment, optometry screenings, eyewear distribution, public health training and veterinary services as requested by the host nations. Mercy is uniquely capable of supporting medical and humanitarian assistance needs and is configured with special medical equipment and a robust multi-specialized medical team who can provide a range of services ashore as well as aboard the ship. The medical staff is augmented with an assistance crew, many of whom are part of non-governmental organizations, which have significant medical capabilities. Mercy is on a five-month deployment to South Asia, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific Islands. U.S. Navy photo by Journalist Seaman Apprentice Mike Leporati (RELEASED)
