Vien D. Doan, D.O., Chairman

Dr. Doan came to the United States at the end of the Vietnam War in 1975 as a young boy with his family of 7.  With nothing but shirts on their backs, the Doans rebuilt their lives. His family lived with an American family in Des Moines, Iowa for the first 6 months, learning what love and care could do to a stranger, he set his sight on one day sharing that experience to other strangers of this world. Today Dr. Doan has a full time practice of Family Medicine in Riverside, CA and devotes most of his spare time to the Ministry.
