CUMC makes another milestone! Imagine the quiet thrill in the operating room as skilled hands guide tiny instruments through keyhole incisions. CUMC proudly marks another historic achievement as the first hospital in Northern Mindanao to perform a laparoscopic prostatectomy—a significant advancement in minimally invasive urologic surgery.
Patients now experience less pain, faster recovery, and smaller scars thanks to this breakthrough.
This milestone was made possible through the expertise of our outstanding Reconstructive and Minimally Invasive Urologists, Dr. Lox Andutan and Dr. Marc Vincent Trinidad, together with our dedicated Cardiac Intensive Care Anesthesiologist, Dr. Mark Yu, Resident, Dr. Earl Vincent Areola, Scrub Nurse Rolp Paguntalan, Circulating Nurses Elisha CardeƱo and Denise Restor, and the entire multidisciplinary surgical team.
Consequently, this achievement reflects our unwavering commitment to innovation, excellence, and providing world-class, patient-centered healthcare to the people of Mindanao. Congratulations to the entire team on this remarkable accomplishment!
