THE DOCTOR IS IN: Why young medical practitioners like Richmarc Albano could be the better choice

 

Dr. Richmarc Albano

Richmarc Albano is not even in his 30s yet, but he gave mature response on why it could be advantageous for patients to consult with and avail the services of young doctors  like himself.

"One of the advantages ay madami ang pool of knowledge ng young doctors," Dr. Albano told Rider PH. "In my case, I trained under 14 veteran doctors, each of them in practice from 10 to 20 years already."

Meaning, he got "the best in their skill set, their techniques" and apply these to his own practice.

The doctor cited American celebrity Kris Jenner as example of someone who, despite having the money to go with any doctor she wants, still had cosmetic work done by a relatively younger surgeon.

"You can't discount that we, young doctors, went through the same vigorous training (as more seasoned ones)," Dr. Albano said. "During my fellowship, I've seen hundreds of cases, assisted in those surgeries. I may be seen as new in the private practice but I've handled multiple cases."

He is not discrediting veteran doctors but only to say "yes, may advantage din sila pero it doesn't mean hindi magaling ang young surgeons."

Dr. Albano is founder of Dr. Rich Advanced Cosmetic Center, the first liposuction center in San Fernando, Pampanga. He had his pre-Med at the University of the Philippines in Manila then further schooling at Far Eastern University - Dr. Nicanor Reyes Medical Foundation.

He had just become a "fellow" of the Philippine Academy of Aesthetic Surgery after passing the written, practical, and oral tests by the Board of Examiners.

Other services being offered at Dr. Rich Advanced Cosmetic Center range from botox and vampire facial to abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) to top surgery.

A quick scroll down the Dr. Rich Facebook page shows they are so confident of delivering any of their services that a Patient Experience Program is made available.

That is, accepted candidates will receive personalized treatment plan with minimal cost in exchange of documenting and sharing his or her journey on social media. 

Of course, the patients avail expert guidance from Albano and his team of experts every step of the way.

The public also gets educated about aesthetics and wellness concerns via short videos of Dr. Albano explaining it all himself.

"Self-care is one of the great investments na puwedeng maibigay sa sarili mo at nag-resonate na yan ngayon with males and females,” he said.
