Providing Care to Those Who Need it Most

Retina Consultants of Southern California (RCSC) is a company committed to providing high-quality care both at home and abroad. Our doctors have served in medical mission trips that supply aid to patients without access to specialty treatment.

 

In 2018, Drs. John Carlson and Eric Chin participated in a mission trip to Pohnpei, Micronesia, where they assisted the communities there with medical and surgical intervention, offering services that are otherwise difficult or impossible to secure in the area.

Mission Trip - 1999

El Salvador

​​

In November 1999, Dr. Carlson, Dr. Phillips, and Dr. Duffin traveled with a medical team to San Salvador, El Salvador. During the mission trip, they performed multiple ophthalmic surgeries for those who could not afford private medical care.  The mission also had an educational purpose for the Doctors at the University of San Salvador.  The medical team instructed the local resident doctors on the latest surgical techniques of cataract extraction and retinal detachment repair.
