May bagong pag-asang naa-aninag

Sa kabila ng madilim na magdamag

Bagong umagang maaliwalas

Na dulot ay saya at galak

Papurihan ang QUEZON CITY MEDICAL SOCIETY

Hangad nito’y kalusugan ng marami

Kaagapay ng bayan sa pag-unlad

Kasaping manggagamot sa tungkulin ay tapat

Hindi alintana ang pagod at hirap

Ulanin man o arawin, puyat sa magdamag

Tuloy tuloy pa rin ang paglingap

Kahit sino man ang kadaupang palad

Congratulations to the members and officers of the Quezon City Medical Society (QCMS) on the occasion of its 36th Annual Convention.

The QCMS is an association of physicians who aim to promote the highest ethical professional standards in the Geld of medicine and enhance learning through further education to deliver quality healthcare services in their community.

This year’s convention with the theme, “Current Challenges in the Care of the Chronically Ill in Covid -19 Times” is relevant with the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic. I laud the QCMS for taking the initiative to deepen the knowledge of its members during these trying times. The rapidly evolving field of medicine knows no bounds and there is a constant need to develop the various expertise of physicians.

The QCMS has also received numerous awards for its various projects to communities such as nutrition activities and Adopt-a-Barangay Project. Even with the COVID- 19 pandemic, the QCMS has continued to provide communities with healthcare services. The achievements of QCMS are a testament to its efforts as health providers.

Like the QCMS, the DOH also has a shared vision of providing quality healthcare services to our kababayan. The Universal Health Care (UHC) Act makes healthcare accessible to every Filipino regardless of social status. Through the UHC, more patients would have the chance to access quality and affordable health care.

Republic of the Philippines QUEZON CITY Office of the Mayor

My warmest greetings to all the hardworking, dedicated, and valiant members of the Quezon City Medical Society (QCMS) as you hold your 36th Annual Convention.

It is truly undeniable how QCMS, most especially your members, have contributed to the health and safety of our people through various civic action and community development programs. More than 7 decades of existence and selfless service is a meaningful journey that we should celebrate.

The theme "Current Challenges in the Care of Chronically Ill in Covid-19 Times" is crucially important during this period of adverse health emergency. Hence, we deeply value the heart and compassion of all our health frontliners in providing the required medical assistance to thousands of patients who deserve nothing but quality and accessible health treatment. I am also positive that you will remain as one of our active collaborators in the fight against the coronavirus disease.

As a manifestation of this cooperation, the Quezon City government, with the Philippine Medical Association and the Vireo Loadworks Inc. signed an agreement in May 2020 creating the Artificial Intelligence-SMS Information Communication Technology (ICT) System which aims to lessen the face-to-face contact between healthcare workers and COVID-19 patients. While telemedicine is technically not new in the medical industry with years of continuous development since 1960, this technological innovation has advanced our strategies in facing this aggressive virus. Through this AI-SMS system, we have added a layer of protection not just for our patients but more so for our frontline personnel.

The battle before us is still filled with uncertainties, but when our objectives and our endeavors are melded towards the desire for healing and saving more lives, we will achieve and surpass our goals.

On behalf of the QCitizens, I am truly .grateful for the 100% service that you have extended to us all.

Maraming salamat po sa inyo lahat at mabuhay kayo!

MA. JOSEFINA G. BELMONTE City Mayor

Greetings of Peace and Good Health to everyone!

Congratulations to the members of the Executive Board and Organizing Committee for conceptualizing a 4 day virtual convention.

In this time of crisis when nothing is certain, we still need to learn and update our knowledge to be able to give service to our patients, our families and to the community as a whole.

The theme for this year's convention, "Current Challenges in the Care of the Chronically Ill in Covid-19 Times," is appropriate and relevant. We have invited expert physicians that will surely give us essential points to take care of ourselves and our patients during this pandemic.

I hope to see you all on this momentous event, our first QCMS virtual convention.

A toast to a successful meetings of the mind!

MA. MERCEDES V. AGUSTIN, MD The 36th Annual Convention of the Quezon City Medical Society is a realization of the collective efforts of a premiere component society that refuses to be limited by challenges amidst a pandemic. Hence, the theme for this year , " Challenges in the Care of the Chronically Ill in COVID-19 times" rises up to its mission of continuing medical education as learning is a lifelong and evolving commitment in our profession. This is also a breakthrough event as the QCMS holds its 1st Virtual Convention this year with the painstaking efforts of the Organizing Committee, the Board and the sponsors.

With pride, I salute all the gallant health professionals as they contribute to beating this formidable and unseen enemy.

Mabuhay ang Quezon City Medical Society! Mabuhay ang Philippine Medical Association!

MECHAEL ANGELO G. MARASIGAN, MD PMA Governor for Quezon City Region, 2021-2022 Greetings to the Officers and Members of the Quezon City Medical Society!

It is indeed an honor and privilege on my part to invite all of you to our 36th Annual (1st Virtual) Convention of the Quezon City Medical Society with the theme “Current Challenges in the Care of the Chemically Ill in Covid-19 times.” Though it is very unfortunate that the covid 19 pandemic has prevented us from holding our Scientific and Continuing Medical Education activities face to face, it is the conviction of the Society that this should not prevent us from engaging in activities that will promote our professional growth. Thus, the Organizing Committee of this year’s convention has pre- pared very timely and relevant topics to be discussed by excellent and very capable resource speak- ers through our digital platform.

We sincerely hope that this year’s convention, though virtual will contribute greatly to our practice as physicians.

I would also like to express my heartfelt gratitude to this year’s Organizing Committee, our speakers who have selflessly shared their time and expertise, our partners in the pharmaceutical industry, the Executive Board, our past presidents and governors, and to all of you, for making this virtual event possible.

Mabuhay ang QCMS!

MICHAEL EUGENIO B. DE GUZMAN, MD QCMS President, 2020-2021 Greetings of Peace and Love to all!!

It is with genuine pleasure to enjoin everyone to the 36th QCMS Annual Convention. This is a memorable one being our first ever virtual convention. Holding this convention is not a minor feat especially in the situation we are all in right now!

This year’s theme, “Current Challenges in the Care of the Chronically Ill in Covid-19 Times'', is very timely. It invokes within us the determination and commitment to serve our fellowmen despite the pressures and difficulties prevailing in our midst because of this Covid-19 pandemic.

I would like to convey my sincere gratitude to all officers, members and advisers of the Organizing Committee who shared and dedicated their time, talent and gave their best to ensure that everything will be in order and make this convention a successful and meaningful one.

I fervently urge our members to fully participate in all activities and take this convention as an opportunity to feel each other’s presence virtually and know that we all belong to one great medical society.

God bless and more power to QCMS!!!

TERESITA N. AGDA, MD Overall Chair, 36th Annual Convention Greetings!

MS. JUDYLENE T. DE GUZMAN President, AQCMS 2020-2021

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE QUEZON CITY MEDICAL SOCIETY (1950 – 2021)

The colourful history of QCMS began way back in 1950 when Dr. Petronilo Monsod, Dr. Demetrio Crispo Lacuna and Dr. Felipe Perez Arenas met at Max Restaurant Quezon City and organized what is known now as “The Quezon City Medical Society”. There were 37 doctors from the different hospitals of Quezon City.

The inauguration of the Society and induction of officers was held on July 22, 1950 at the Socoro Hall of the Quezon Institute. Dr. Petronio G. Monsod was inducted as the first President by Dr. Rodolfo Gonzales, the President of the Philippine Medical Association.

The 1st Regional Convention of the PMA held in Davao City in 1951 was attended by members ofthe QCMS. The first PMA Convention to be held in this city (Quezon City) was on May 1958 at the Ateneo Grade School Loyola Heights in which the QCMS was host.

Since, there was no permanent office for the QCMS, Board Meetings were held in different places in Quezon City like Mt. Banawe Hospital, UDMC, V. Luna Hospital depending on who the elected president was.

Auxiliary to the QCMS was organized in 1965 and the first President was Mrs. Purita David.

The Society takes pride in having 8 PMA President coming from the QCMS namely: Dr. Pedro Mayuga 1960-61, Dr. Jesus Tamesis 1963-64, Dr. Jose Denoga 1965-66, Dr. Fe del Mundo 1969-70, Dr. Jose Pujalte 1985-86, Dr. Concordia Pascual 1994-95, Dr. Gil Fernandez 2001-2003 and Dr. Rey Melchor Santos 2008-2010.

On January 10, 1970 a Contract of Lease for an office space at the PMA Auditorium was signed allowing the QCMS to hold office there for 10 years for a fee of P10,000. This was negotiated by Dr. Elpidio C. Panganiban, QCMS President (1969-1970) and by Dra. Fe Del Mundo, PMA President (1969-1970).

On May 19, 1986, a Contract of Lease of the present office of the QCMS in the New PMA Building for a period of 99 years for an initial sum of P100,000 excluding the monthly rental was signed by Dr. Jose Pujalte and Dr. Jesus de Jesus of the QCMS Building Committee then. Activities included community development and civic action; continuing medical education program: socials, fellowship and sports development program and support to the Bukal ng Pagasa Day Care Center at West Riverside SFDM.

The QCMS used to be a component society under the Central Tagalog Region of the PMA which included Caloocan Medical Society, Pasay-Paranaque Medical Society and Valenzuela Medical Society. The first PMA Governor for the Central Tagalog Region was Dr. Jesus de Jesus. Previously the region was represented by a Councilor.

With its desire to be able to involve as many members as possible in the activities of the society, Dr. Benjamin Tamesis QCMS President 1975-1976 subdivided the Quezon City Medical Society into four districts following the political districts I, II, III and IV with a district councilor for each. The following were significant events during the 1980’s:

1. The 1st Annual Convention of the Quezon City Medical Society was organized under the Presidency of Dr. Jesus de Jesus with Dr. Juliet Santos as Overall Chairman and was held at Garden Hotel, Makati Metro Manila on June 14, 1985. 2. On May 19, 1986, a Contract of Lease of the present office of the QCMS in the new PMA Building was signed by Dr. Jose Pujalte, PMA President at that time and Dr. Jesus de Jesus Chairman of the QCMS Building Committee. 3. The first QCMS Duckpin Bowling Tournament was organized in 1986 by Dr. Jesus de Jesus, Dr. Antonio Cabigas and Dr. Cesar Meris.

A great change came about in the 5th decade 1991-2000 since the founding of the QCMS. This was the ushering of the computer age in our area. The society acquired a computer to systematize the vast records of the membership.

The QCMS became a member of the Local Health Board of the Quezon City government. In 1995 under the Presidency of Dr. Rey Melchor Santos, the bid of the Quezon City Medical Society to become a separate PMA Region was successful and was ratified by the PMA House of Delegates. Dr. Santos became the first PMA Governor for the Quezon City Region.

In 1996 under the Presidency of Dr. Milagros Encarnacion the Benefit and Assistance Fund was created to give welfare benefits to our members in the form of Disability Benefit, Death Benefit and Legal Benefit. The first Chairman was Dr. Cesar E. Meris who also formulated the Benefit and Assistance Code which was approved by the Board

From year 2000 thereon the Society further made progress by leaps and bounds: The QCMS office was expanded and renovated in 2003. A new construction was made adjoining the old office thereby doubling the office space. This was started during the presidency of Dr. Ricardo Costes and governorship of Dr. Ofelia Borje and finished during the term of Dr. Benjamin Lim, President and Dr. Cesar Meris as PMA Governor.

In 2003 the PMA Board of Governors decided that each PMA region should have a flag that would represent the region. Dr. Cesar Meris the PMA Governor for the QC Region designed the Regional flag which was presented to the Board and was approved. This flag also became the official flag of the Quezon City Medical Society.

MICHAEL EUGENIO B. DE GUZMAN, M.D.

Greetings to the Officers and members of the Quezon City Medical Society!

The covid-19 pandemic has truly been a formidable challenge to the QCMS. The usual activities of our society were put on hold because of the health protocols needed to stop the spread of the disease. Almost all of our meetings as well as our projects and activities were done virtually.

Despite this, we were still able to hold webinars, meetings, outreach projects, nutrition programs, environmental health and sanitation project and other activities. This proves that despite the challenges posed by the covid-19 pandemic, the QCMS remains to be a cohesive organization which addresses the needs and concerns of its members and the different communities of Quezon City.

My heartfelt gratitude goes to the officers and members who have donated their time and effort to ensure the success of these activities and to keep the QCMS strong during these challenging times.
