Urgently looking for a translator

A friend of mine got in a serious motorbike accident in Saigon. He is in a hospital in a state of coma and (as far as the doctor in the hospital says) he needs a brain surgery. We struggling to get a second opinion but the hospital doctor isn't willing to share the patient's history and MRT results. The doctor speaks very little english and at the moment we need a fluent vietnamese person with fluent english or russian and is more desirably a doctor or with a medical degree.

I think you had better off contact some international clinic sun as the International SOS for evacuation plan as it's getting to serious stage. Good luck to your friend.
