Frequently Asked Questions

Do you issue Medical Certificates?

I do not issue medical certificates or fit-to-work clearances. When clinically appropriate, I may provide a Brief Psychological Consultation Report summarizing the consultation, preliminary impressions, and recommendations. A separate fee of ₱600 applies.

Which HMO's/Healthcards do you accept?

At this time, I do not accept HMO insurance. All consultations are self-pay.

Can I book a face to face consultation with you?

No. I currently provide virtual or remote consultations only. If you prefer an in-person consultation, I may refer you to a trusted colleague with a physical clinic.
