The DSP-PDS, with the initiative of the Head of the CME and Socials Committee, Dr. Claudine Yap Silva and Dr. Maria Franchesca S. Quinio-Calayag respectively, held its very first learning activity exclusive to the members last February 23, 2023. During the online meeting, Dr. Franchesca Marie Ilagan shared five interesting cases obtained from her Fellowship training in Taiwan and Dr. Jolene Kristine G. Gatmaitan-Dumlao shared a difficult consult case from her province in Baguio. The diplomates and fellows of the DSP-PDS enjoyed and at the same time incurred additional insights to their subspecialization.

The newly elected Board of Directors and the Committee Heads of the DSP-PDS held their first meeting last February 19, 2023 at the Loggia by Margarita Fores at Palacio de Memoria in Roxas Boulevard. The team met and discussed each of the committees’ plans for 2023-2024.
