While there are no Jews living in Micronesia, less than six months ago the Israeli ministry sent an Israeli doctor to assist local staff at the Chuuk State Hospital for several months on routine medical procedures and public health issues.

In January 2001, two Israeli eye doctors were also sent to Micronesia to open walk-in clinics for hundreds of islanders suffering from eye disease.

During that visit, Israel donated a laser unit for glaucoma therapy and retinal disorders, as well as pharmaceuticals.
