Volunteer stories
Dr Ron Hiles, Surgical
For the past ten years, ASTI trustee Dr. Ronald Hiles has been volunteering his plastic surgery skills to the staff and survivors of the Acid Survivors Foundation in Bangladesh. Dr. Hiles, who is based in the UK, has trained a generation of plastic surgeons and has volunteered his holidays for the past two decades helping Bangladeshi burn victims to rebuild their lives. His pioneering work over the past 25 years has expanded out to Cambodia and India with the help of many other surgeons (including specialists at the Prince of Wales Hospital at the Chinese University of Hong Kong).
