Dr. Hibbs performs free dentistry during Operation Lone Star

          In July 2003 Dr. Hibbs participated in an humanitarian mission known as Operation Lone Star. 

          Operation Lone Star is a two-week medical and dental training exercise made possible by the combined efforts of civilian health professionals and U. S. military medical personnel. This unique exercise provides free dental and medical services to Rio Grande Valley residents who lack access to traditional preventive health care.  

          Last year, OLS provided health screenings, care, and medication for more than 6,000 local residents. The total monetary value of all services offered was nearly $1 million.
