How long does a typical session last?

A typical session lasts around 15 to 30 minutes per patient. It can take longer depending on the case and needs of each patient, and if there will be technical difficulties. Prior to accepting consults, I do ask each of my patients regarding the time they are available for consult. If there will be changes in the schedule, please inform me immediately (latest 30 mins. prior to your scheduled timeslot) via seriousMD message or viber so I can adjust my schedule for other patients as well.

How long do I need to wait to get a response to my booking request?

I do reply within 24 hours. I will also contact via SMS if there are no replies in this platform.

Do you issue Medical Certificates?

Yes. Take note that a medical certificate is a legal document affixed with my signature so there will be an additional charge of PHP600.00. Medical certificates are not part of insurance coverage and shall only be given for specific valid reasons, and given only after the consultation is completed. Medical certificate I issue cannot be used for legal or medicolegal purposes.

Which HMO's/Healthcards do you accept?

My apologies. I am not affiliated with HMO/Healthcards.

Can I book a schedule today?

Yes. As long as there is an available schedule, requests for appointments will be accommodated. I will immediately advise for any changes re schedules.

Do I need to pay first to get an appointment?

Yes, you will have to pay the fee before I will receive the request. The consultation fee includes only the following: examining the patient regarding the complaint, giving the impressions or diagnosis, and giving the appropriate management/prescription. There will be additional fees charged to you for any additional services offered during the consultation.

Can I book a face to face consultation with you?

Please send an e-mail or message through this platform for further details. Thank you.
