The recent years have significantly evolved our perceptions of healthcare. Many of us have not only become more conscious of how physical and mental well-being go hand in hand, but also of how safeguarding our health requires a level of commitment that is personal, intentional and proactive.
Echoing these ideals, the expansive network of The Medical City (TMC) is ruled by its compelling proposition to be an institution “where patients are partners”. As it continues to build a healthier Filipino community through the multi-awarded excellence of its staff and its fruitful engagement with patrons, TMC opens the doors to a newly renovated Wellness and Aesthetics Institute (WAI) where bespoke and holistic healthcare takes centre stage.
“Having regular checkups and taking care of your skin are ways of doing self-care where WAI can provide unique, personalised services,” says WAI director Dr Christian Flores. “Overall, it’s about feeling good inside and looking good outside, encapsulating the completeness of the individual.” Having recognised this, TMC’s Centre for Wellness and Aesthetics was launched as a stand-alone unit back in 2009 until it grew into the more robust institute in 2018. With comprehensive services encompassing various specialisations, this hub today is a well-curated one-stop shop for different age groups and distinctive wellness needs.
