Dr. Ravin’s Acts of Kindness
Dr. Ravin was recently featured on Better Connecticut to highlight his commendable volunteer dental services that he provides to poor nations across the world.
Over the past few years, Dr. Ravin and his wife have made annual trips to Haiti to provide dental services to hundreds of people who cannot afford to properly care for their teeth. As one of the most impoverished nations in the world, even before the recent tragedy, many of these people have such a multitude of problems that they cannot make dental care a priority. Regardless of financial status, Dr. Ravin believes that all people deserve quality dental care to keep their teeth as healthy as possible.
During a weeklong mission, Dr. Ravin and his volunteer staff saw an average of 160 patients each day, performing procedures in a parking lot to patients of all ages. In addition to his annual trips to Haiti, Dr. Ravin is also planning trips to Cambodia and other countries in need.
