How PACHE began

Founded in 2023 by Dr. Howard Pyo and Dianne Lukman, PACHE connects clinicians, volunteers, and local partners to bring healthcare and education to underserved communities.

Our work is guided by compassion, collaboration, and the belief that care should reach people where they are. From Bali to Batu and Bogor, each clinic has helped us listen more closely and shape what comes next.

“I volunteered at Pyo Clinic’s free health events in Bali and Malang, pouring my heart into preparing and managing everything to ensure the community received the care they deserved. At the front desk, I welcomed patients with warmth, registering them and performing their first health screenings, knowing this small role made a big difference. Seeing the genuine smiles and relief on the faces of the elderly reminded me why compassion in healthcare truly matters.”
