Statement on Public Shaming of Doctors!

The Philippine Medical Association condemns the recent viral post on social media publicly shaming a Surgeon Physician. Professional fees for doctors can vary based on several factors, including the complexity and type of service rendered and level of expertise of the physician handling the case. Each doctor has the right to determine the worth of his services rendered guided by a common relative value scale followed in the Philippines. Based on accounts on services rendered to the patient mentioned in the case the hospital charges and professional fees were within acceptable limits of ethical practice.

We therefore condemn the post to malign a physician who performed his duty well. He was singled out despite the fact that there were several medical specialists who handled this very complex case. Based on facts gathered the high professional fee in question was incorrect and was actually lower , the physicians even agreed to be paid with a guarantee letter! Considering the patient was treated with utmost compassion and concern by the several attending physicians for more than 20 days the social media post claiming “heartless treatment “ from the Physicians is unjust and uncalled for.

Let's focus on promoting a supportive and respectful environment for healthcare professionals. Doctors and all health care professionals play a vital role in our lives, and you should be acknowledging their hard work and dedication. You were treated and saved from near death to good health ready for discharge and you repay their kindness with Public shaming!

My patient traveled all the way from Isabela for an eye check up today. He still enjoys 20/20 vision on both eyes even after 13 years post Phacoemulsification c PCIOL implants. It is very heart warming to reconnect with patients several years after I performed their eye surgeries. Thank you very much for the visit. Your bright smile matches your clear vision.

Thank you Senator Theodore for entrusting us with improving your vision. The Senator from The Federal States of Micronesia consulted due to very blurry vision on both eyes caused by Age Related Cataracts. I performed Cataract Extraction with Intraocular Lens Implantation on both eyes and now he sees 20/20 without the need for glasses.

Am so happy to see my 80 y/o patient who came for a check up today. In 2018, I removed his cataract and implanted intraocular lenses on both of his eyes. Presently he still enjoys his 20/20 vision and just needed reading glasses for near reading. What a way to start the week! Happy Monday!

Our cheery couple from Guam are so ecstatic with their new vision after undergoing TransPRK for nearsightedness or Myopia. Both are involved in the military service and enjoy an athletic lifestyle hence TransPRK was the refractive procedure of their choice. TransPRK has no flap related problems compared to Lasik and very minimal incidence of Dry Eyes post laser. Thank you for your trust and it was a pleasure helping you enjoy spectacle freedom
