PHILIPPINE SOCIETY OF
PEDIATRIC SURGEONS
MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
Greetings of health and peace to everyone. Welcome to the new website of the Philippine Society of Pediatric Surgeons. It features a brief history of how pediatric surgery came about in our country, the birth of an organization, and its humble beginnings. To date there are 64 fellows distributed in the whole archipelago and is still growing because of the need of these specialists in underserved regions of the country. It also highlights the society’s programs, activities and achievements, all geared to the present challenges of the pandemic. The website is accessible to all Filipinos so each one is empowered to have a knowledge of a pediatric surgeon nearest your locality. It contains a directory of dedicated and compassionate Fellows in the care of surgically sick newborn and children, because we believe they deserve only the best.
