Bless you Dr. Bunkis... you will receive great blessings in heaven. May the Lord bless your practice and give you the ability to continue to share your gift for many years to come.

Thank goodness there are still a few good people around who can help their fellow men. It is an inspiration to me. Thank you so much for giving a "new life" to this deserving artist. OCDS also volunteers dental help to children of OC. God Bless you all!

Dear Dr. Bunkis!

I was moved by reading the article re. Manuel Garibaldi.  
 
 For background purposes, the article was a blog formated as Q&A, sent on your clinic's letterhead to my daughter (Anita Tubelis-Werbelow).
I am Latvian, and from your name, I surmise, so are you.  Following retirement from my business in San Francisco, I continue to maintain part-time residence there,  permanently residing in Del Mar, Ca.  Anita forwarded Manuel's story to me, wondering why it was sent to her.
 
Notwithstanding  the above, what you and your team accomplished is truly compassionate and praiseworthy.  I can appreciate the effort expanded by all involved.  Deborah Palermo deserves high accolades for her solicitude and organizational accomplishment.
 
Thank you also Dr. Bunkis, for imparting much appreciated polish to Latvia's name.  Wether or not you identify yourself as Latvian, your 
name shouts Latvian.
 
Bravo and thank you (paldies).
 
Arnis Tubelis

I am very impressed that this man was treated pro bono by all of the people involved, but especially by Dr. Bunkis. He will be doing my face peel in a few months.

Deborah,

I am very moved by this tale of help and caring I just received from OCPS. Bless you and all the others involved for your selfless acts to aid Manuel in his cancer surgery and reconstruction. So wonderful to see that people still care for others even in these hard financial times and the typically egocentric and selfish era we live in. Bless you all.
