In conversation with Dr David Chong – Plastic Surgeon on Mercy Ships, Operation Smile and giving back
Episode 29
Monday, 8 October, 2018
This week I had a chance to speak with Dr David Chong, a brilliant paediatric plastic surgeon at the Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne. David also works tirelessly in the charity space, including with Operation Smile and the Mercy Ships organisation. I was particularly keen to talk to David about the incredible work he's been doing with Operation Smile and Mercy Ships. David regularly volunteers his time and expertise on the Mercy Ships, an organisation that brings life saving medical assistance to developing countries irrespective of their socio-economic status. David's schedule takes him abroad regularly, so I was grateful to meet up, and was surprised to discover just how much time he dedicates to helping the world's poor, why it's a priority for him, what led him to do the work he does today, both at home and abroad. We talk about the value of doing what you love, life changing mentors and the miracles he experiences in his everyday life. It was so brilliant to sit down and find out more about what makes David tick, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
