Behind the white coat is a mom who will brave any storm. ⛈️👩‍⚕️

​Mother’s Day started early today with a two-hour rainy trek to Christ the Healer Hospital in Sogod. Between the downpours and stretches of zero visibility on the road, the drive was a test of faith and focus—much like motherhood itself!

​Duty calls because healing doesn’t take a holiday, but the best part of the day was making it back just in time for a quiet, simple dinner with my kids. My heart (and my plate) is full. 🤍

​Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms who go the extra mile—literally and figuratively!



The duty is done, and the "Mom" shift has officially begun! :)

Better late than never for a milestone this monumental!

👁️ A Historic Milestone for Eastern Visayas!
My heart is full as I join the entire community in congratulating the Eastern Visayas Medical Center (EVMC) Department of Ophthalmology for the successful accreditation of the residency training program from the Philippine Board of Ophthalmology (PBO) for 2027-2029.

Achieving this feat in Region VIII is not just a title—it is the culmination of years of relentless dreaming, grit, and vision.
🤝 To the Village That Made This Possible
Success like this is never a solo journey. My deepest gratitude goes out to the following:

The Visionary Leaders: To our current and past Chairmen—thank you for the countless sleepless nights, the strategic planning, and for never giving up on this dream even when the finish line seemed far away.

The Dream Team: To my fellow sub specialist consultants, our hardworking residents, and the dedicated nursing and administrative staff. Your collective effort and daily sacrifices are the backbone of this department.

Our Partners: To the EVMC Administration for the unwavering support, and to our Industry Partners who have walked alongside us in enhancing our capabilities.

The Mentors & Colleagues: Thank you for the guidance and the wisdom shared. You’ve helped us navigate the path toward excellence.

📜 A Gift of Trust
We extend our sincerest thanks to the Philippine Board of Ophthalmology for this wonderful gift of accreditation. We accept this responsibility with pride and a commitment to maintain the highest standards of specialty training.
Most importantly, we thank the patients of Eastern Visayas. Thank you for placing your sight and your trust in our hands. You are the greatest "WHY" behind everything we do.

✨ Soli Deo Gloria
Above all, we give all the glory to God, whose grace has sustained us through every challenge and led us to this historic victory.

This is more than just an institutional success; it is a win for every Waraynon.

We are ready to train the next generation of eye specialists right here at home.
Congratulations, EVMC Department of Ophthalmology!
Making history. Building the future. Restoring vision.

Protect Your Vision on the Court! 🎾👀

​Pickleball moves fast—sometimes faster than you can blink. In just 0.5 seconds, a ball can reach your eyes at high speed, especially during those intense close-range rallies.

​"See the ball, protect it all."

​To keep your vision sharp and your game safe, I highly recommend wearing wraparound goggles with polycarbonate lenses. Here’s why:

​High Impact Resistance: They absorb the force of sudden hits, significantly reducing the risk of corneal injuries or retinal damage.

​Clearer Sightlines: Opt for anti-fog coatings and UV protection to maintain perfect clarity during every rally, whether you're playing indoors or out.

​Preventative Habit: Make eye protection as essential as your paddle. Put your goggles on before you step onto the court.

​Stay safe and stay in the game!

HEAT STROKE: Isang Medikal na Emergency

​Ang pag-alam sa mga senyales ay makapagliligtas ng buhay. Ang heat stroke ang pinakamalalang sakit na dulot ng init at nangangailangan ng agarang atensyong medikal.

​BABALA: Tumawag agad ng ambulansya o emergency services kung makikita ang mga sintomas na ito.

​✅ Napakataas na Temperatura ng Katawan: Ang temperatura na 40°C o higit pa ang pangunahing senyales nito.

​✅ Pagbabago sa Mental na Katayuan o Pag-uugali: Maaaring makaranas ng pagkalito, pagkabalisa, pagnginig ng pananalita (slurred speech), pagiging iritable, pagdedeliryo, pangingisay (seizures), at koma.

​✅ Pagbabago sa Pagpapawis: Sa heat stroke na dulot ng mainit na panahon, ang balat ay tuyo at mainit hawakan. Sa heat stroke naman na dulot ng matinding ehersisyo, ang balat ay maaaring tuyo o kaya ay mamasa-masa.

​✅ Pagsusuka at Pagkahilo: Pakiramdam na nasusuka o aktwal na pagsusuka.

​✅ Namumulang Balat: Maaaring mamula ang balat habang tumataas ang temperatura ng katawan.

​✅ Mabilis na Paghinga: Ang paghinga ay maaaring maging mabilis at mababaw.

​✅ Mabilis na Tibok ng Puso: Maaaring bumilis nang husto ang pulso dahil sa tindi ng hirap ng puso na palamigin ang katawan.

​✅ Sakit ng Ulo: Karaniwan ang nakaka-ngiraytiray o pumupulsong sakit ng ulo.
