Hello
The Greg and Friends Foundation, a charitable organization founded by Dr. Thao Tran. Dr. Tran is a dedicated healthcare professionals are making a profound impact on people's lives through her commitment to traditional health practices and community service.
Her Story
Dr. Tran began her career in healthcare as an Acupuncturist and Doctor of Vietnamese Medicine in Vietnam. She continued her education in the United States, first studying chiropractic medicine at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, lowa, and then studying Traditional Chinese Medicine and Massage Therapy at Northwestern Health Sciences University in Bloomington, Minnesota. Her passion for integrating these holistic approaches into patient care continues to positively impact her patients' health. Dr. Tran was inspired to establish the Greg and Friends Foundation by its namesake, Greg Scammel, a Vietnam War veteran, and Dr. Tran's godfather. Greg was exposed to Agent Orange during the war but continued to serve and help others throughout his service. It wasn't until years later that he learned the full impact of his exposure to the herbicide through developing health complications. His spirit left a lasting impact on Dr. Tran, motivating her to create the Greg and Friends Foundation.​
