Clubs
The Pattaya City Expats Club meeting will be on
Sunday January 8 and the main speaker will be Dr. Narong who has helped
hundreds of patients with physical facial defects. Dr. Narong says that
corrective surgery is much more difficult and challenging than cosmetic
surgery but more rewarding. He has been working on the Smile Thai Operation
Project for many years through Decha Hospital and will talk about this
charitable work and other work in order to provide correction to facial
defects. Meetings take place every Sunday at 10.30 a.m. at Henry J.
