Dr. Rex Palma, my cardiologist, is currently the head of Cardiology department of Tagaytay Medical Center. He is a member of Philippine College of Physicians, Philippine Medical Association, and Philippine Heart Association. Dr. Palma specializes as an Internist, Cardiologist, and Vascular Medicine. Tagaytay isn’t only a place of great weather but also a home to specialists like him.

Over To You
There’s an old saying that “too much of anything could kill you.” It applies to everything. In an interview with Dr. Palma last year, he reiterated the importance of having a proper mindset and motivation. At any rate, it is better to pay for something expensive than to lose the chances of being with your family and friends.
As we always hear and often neglect, health is wealth. Oftentimes, we value our health when sickness comes. So, if you can save money on your travel goals and gadget goals, save up to have these tests done first because your heart needs some tender loving care too.
Ultimately, when in doubt, always seek your doctor’s advice. Self-medication is the perennial problem in the Philippines due to expensive medical assistance.
