Medical AttentionThe Guam Visitors Bureau (GVB) has requested the assistance of the Guam Medical Association (GMA) to provide an available list of medical providers who can assist with stranded visitors impacted by Typhoon Mawar.

In a letter, GVB President & CEO Carl T.C. Gutierrez reached out to GMA President Dr. Thomas Shieh on the urgent need of these visitors who are in need of medical attention.
