Remote Area Medical Wise, VA 2011

WISE — Upwards of 4,000 people shrugged off the muggy heat of a Friday simmering its way toward sweltering as the 12th annual Remote Area Medical (RAM) Health Expedition got under way at the Wise County Fairgrounds.

About 1,700 volunteers — roughly 1,000 of them medical professionals — got busy before the crack of dawn on Friday to provide free medical, dental and eye care services to all-comers. Gates opened for patient registration at 6 a.m., and by 7 a.m. all 1,500 dental and eye care slots for the day had been filled, with another 200 to 300 people opting for the medicalservices-only line.
