International Fellows Program - Dr. Shiels and Dr. Villanueva
Claudia Trusty presents Dr. Villanueva with a Dublin AM Rotary banner along with Debbie Sheppard and Dr. Shiels.
Dr. Bill Shiels, Chairman of the Department of Radiology at Nationwide Children’s Hospital and Dr. Dennis Villanueva, an interventional radiologist from the Philippines presented an update on the impact the Dublin AM Rotary International Fellowship program has had on docs training docs in the Philippines.
Villanueva was the first doctor to be trained by Dr. Shiels under a two-week fellowship funded by Dublin AM Rotary in 2009. He trained with Dr. Shiels and the team of interventional radiologists at Nationwide Children’s Hospital to learn minimally invasive interventional radiology procedures which he took back to the Philippines to treat children in need at St. Luke’s Hospital in Manila, and teach other radiologists.
Dr. Villanueva is back for another training period and will continue to participate in the docs training docs International Fellowship program.
