+ ANGELES City, Pampanga s Puso Center has completed 32 minors surgeries on some indigent locals.
According to Executive Assistant IV Reina Manuel, some of the minor surgeries performed by Puso Center’s resident doctor, Dr. Rey Hipolito, include the removal of lipoma, abdominal mass, ear and skin tag, foot warts and the excision of cysts on the back, tendon, index and ring finger.
Hipolito said the clinic’s newly installed skin cauterizing machine, the Neo-Frecator, was also used on one patient to minimize tissue damage and further infection.
To ensure the machine will work properly, an initial inspection was also done by Manuel and Hipolito. Manuel also inspected the renovation and repair of the Puso Center before its launching last February 2020.
