Grateful & Blessed— that’s how we look back on a truly meaningful 2025 for our department. 🌟
This year has been marked by growth, milestones, and God’s grace at every step.
We proudly achieved the PBOHNS Department Accreditation, a testament to our collective dedication and hard work.
We warmly welcome Dr. Ronalyn I. Lizardo back from her fellowship training in Rhinology, Allergy, Septorhinoplasty, Anterior Skull Base, and Smell & Taste.
We also welcome Dr. Galen Clark C. Perez, our Facial Aesthetic Core of ENT Surgeons and Dr. Rondino Carlo T. Rueda, our Sleep Medicine and Sleep Surgery specialist.
We successfully performed our first microlaryngeal surgery, led by Dr. Peter F. Carabeo. Laryngology - Voice, swallowing and airway surgery specialist.
Our first and successful microvascular and reconstructive surgery, by Dr. Aaron Jen B. Castriciones. A significant milestone in advancing our surgical capabilities.
Dr. Gerard F. Lapina. Otology-Neurotology and Lateral Skull Base Surgery Specialist, brought invaluable service to the community — and we celebrate him for being recognized as a PJOHNS Star Awardee.
We ended the year with a warm and joyful get-together lunch during the 69th PSOHNS annual Convention, celebrating teamwork, gratitude, and shared purpose.
As we close a wonderful and blessed 2025, we extend our heartfelt thanks to all our staff — our visiting consultants and Region 2 Trauma & Medical Center — for their unwavering support and guidance. Your commitment continues to inspire and uplift our department.
Looking forward to a fruitful, purpose-filled, and grace-guided 2026.
To more growth, service, and meaningful achievements! Happy New Year! 💙✨
