Why You Should Add Health in Your Calendar

Tweet

Healthcare is now more than just curing diseases. Medical practitioners have a new and more comprehensive approach when it comes to treating their patients.

According to Dr. Lizbeth Sto. Tomas, a Wellness Doctor of Internal Medicine at The Medical City Clark, “Health is simply the absence of any physical sickness. Wellness, meanwhile, is a more encompassing concept that is rooted in a person’s overall lifestyle.” 

The Medical City Clark’s Executive Check-up program focuses on giving solutions that aim to improve their patients’ overall wellness, one that is preventive, promotive, proactive, and personalized.

More comprehensive tests than regular check-ups

According to Dr. Sto. Tomas, the doctors at The Medical City Clark’s Executive Check-up do comprehensive tests that allow them to check the patient’s overall condition. They personalize it based on the patient’s current lifestyle as well as his genetic family history and previous medical conditions. The same physician also oversees the same patient for a better and more comprehensive overview of the patient’s case.

Ms. Rochelle Aquino-Lagman, the Manager for Customer Relations and Allied Services of the Medical City Clark noted a crucial detail in their program, “We make it a point that our Executive Check-up Coordinators would be closely managing a patient up until they checkout. The same person will also be following up on them post-executive check-up.”

Comfort and Convenience

Waiting for the doctor’s appointment can get dragging and results can take hours or even days. The Medical City Clark offers its VIPs a comfortable stay complete with a lounge with free snacks, Wi-Fi, air conditioning and television. VIPs who undergo a complete physical exam have the option to be admitted in one of The Medical City Clark’s hospital suites for an easier time in getting results the next day. Ms. Rochelle, who has a background in hotel management, describes their Executive Check-up Program as “similar to a hotel, a mini-hotel, where we assist like a butler, up until the client will be inferred to a specialist.”

The Executive Circle Club Card

The Executive Circle Card is the newest offer by The Medical City Clark that has exclusive membership discounts that will even include the cardholder’s dependents. The Medical City Clark also partners with several hotels, offering corporate rates to patients as well as their dependents with the Executive Circle Club Card.

True to their VIP treatment of their patients, members will also have first access to events by The Medical City Clark such as post-graduate courses, congress fair, and launches. Card registration is free and is activated when you schedule an appointment at The Medical City Clark’s Executive Check-up Program.

Dr. Lizbeth Sto. Tomas recommends an annual executive check-up for patients with unremarkable medical history or those who don’t have any serious medical concerns in the past or at present. However, if a person is taking maintenance medications, the attending physician may require an executive check-up every 3-6 months.

When it comes to your health, choose a hospital that will give you the best care. The Medical City Clark is located in Clark Freeport Zone, Pampanga that is accessible to Central Luzon residents. For more information, you may call The Medical City Clark’s Wellness office at (045) 300 8000 or 0916-448-8046.

Save time, energy and up to 50 percent when you buy an LG TWINWash washing machine

Tweet

LG Electronics pioneered new territory when it introduced the game-changing TWINWash, a washing machine system that enables users to wash and spin two separate loads at the same time, the first in the main washer and the second in a space-saving mini washer underneath. 

Separating your delicates from everyday clothes and having to wash them at different times is now a thing of the past. Taking convenience to a new level, the TWINWash allows you to save time and energy by cleaning double the amount of clothes simultaneously—the main washer can accommodate cottons and regular clothes while the mini washer is an ideal solution for specialized laundry items that require a gentler touch, such as active wear, baby’s clothes or lingerie.

You now get the chance to purchase this innovative product— and well-deserved convenience—at a discounted price. Every purchase of selected LG TWINWash models entitles you to special discounts of up to 20 percent on the main washer and 50 percent on the mini washer (washers sold separately) when buying both TWINWash solutions. Meanwhile, a 35 percent discount is offered if you buy the mini washer alone. 

This promotion is valid until September 14, 2018, and is available at participating LG distributor stores nationwide.

Vivo X21 Is An Eyecatcher At The Mobile Fest 2018

Tweet

Global smartphone brand Vivo has made a good impression on tech enthusiasts at the SM Cyberzone’s Mobile Fest 2018.

To explain all the goods on Vivo’s latest flagship smartphone—the X21, the brand tapped respected tech experts Mark Macanas of TechPinas and Alora Uy Guerrero of Revu.

Alora Uy Guerrero of Revu and Mark Macanas of TechPinas had nothing but praises for Vivo X21.

The experts discussed Vivo X21’s unlocking technologies, dual rear camera, AI Selfie Camera, AI Game Mode, Hi-Fi, performance, and design.

Macanas and Guerrero mentioned that there are two ways to unlock the Vivo X21, through the Face ID Access with Infrared that accurately identifies a user’s facial features even in nighttime and the In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology that replaces the rear fingerprint sensor. 

Vivo is the industry pioneer of In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology.

Aside from pioneering features, the pair also talked about Vivo X21’s photography-related specs. The 12 megapixel+5MP dual rear camera and the 12MP front camera with Dual Pixel Sensor. These impressive hardware specs are even boosted by the X21’s AI features like the AI Face Beauty and AI HDR.

In terms of performance, the Vivo X21 proved to be a hard worker, said Macanas and Guerrero. After all, the X21 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 660AIE chip that can process complex AI and neural computing. It has a 6GB RAM + 128GB ROM to improve the speed of launching, loading, and switching including large and complex mobile games.

To complement all these, Vivo X21 has a 6.28-inch 19:9 FHD+ FullView™ Display with a 90.3% screen-to-body ratio for every user’s viewing pleasure.

Moreover, Guerrero, a music-lover, even praised Vivo for continuing its Hi-Fi legacy in the X21. The smartphone is equipped with Deep Field technology, which was developed by Vivo to provide panoramic surround, mega bass, clear voice effects and various environmental audio effects, allowing users to customize their audio experience.

The Vivo booth will be at the Mobile Fest until July 29 in SM City North EDSA.

Robbie Williams, Ayda Williams and Louis Tomlinson join Simon Cowell as judges on the X Factor UK

Tweet

The X Factor UK is thrilled to announce Robbie Williams, Ayda Williams and Louis Tomlinson will join Simon Cowell on the new-look judging panel for the hit singing talent show.

The three new judges appeared with Simon at a press conference at Somerset House in central London where they were officially revealed.

Robbie is a global superstar who has sold more than 75 million albums over his career and won 18 BRIT Awards - more than any other artist in history. Robbie has been playing to sold out stadiums across the world over the past year on his 'The Heavy Entertainment Show Tour’ - which has seen him perform to more than 1.25 million fans across the UK, Europe and Australasia. Robbie released the platinum-selling ‘The Heavy Entertainment Show’ album in November 2016 - it debuted at Number 1 on the UK album chart, giving Williams his 12th Number 1 solo album. 

Ayda Williams - actress, presenter and wife to Robbie for eight years - will be competing with her husband to claim the winning spot on this year’s show. Ayda has an invaluable inside take on how the music industry works and knows first-hand what it takes to forge a successful career. It is the first time on The X Factor UK that a husband and wife have been judges.

Louis is the first judge to have also been a contestant on the show. As a member of One Direction he has sold more than 150 million records worldwide and achieved more than 100 global No1s. One Direction were the biggest selling UK act globally for three consecutive years and in 2013 they were overall the biggest selling act in the world.

As a solo artist, Louis’ single Back to You hit No.1 in 37 countries and has been streamed more than 220 million times. He recently won the 2018 iHeartRadio award for Best Solo Breakout and is currently recording his debut solo album.

Music mogul and show creator Simon has been the mastermind behind some of the music industry’s biggest acts from Leona Lewis and One Direction to Little Mix and James Arthur. Acts from The X Factor UK have sold more than 250 million records globally to date.

Simon told the gathered media at the press conference: “This new panel is all about optimism, everyone has a real passion for finding a new star. The three new judges bring a whole new energy and I’m excited.” 

Robbie said: “For nearly 30 years I’ve been touring. I’ve been wanting to branch out and The X Factor felt like the perfect vehicle. Ayda is my rock, she’s looked after me through thick and thin. I’m looking forward to getting started as a judge!” 

Ayda said: “On a professional level I’ve auditioned for years so I know the highs and lows. I know what it takes to help people achieve their dreams. It’s all about the auditionees, it’s an organic process. The fact I get to work with Rob and against him is fantastic!”

Louis said: “The X Factor for me made a lot of sense. Development of artists is something I’ve been interested in for a long time. Having been on the show myself I know first-hand that the live shows are like nothing else you would experience. I’m looking forward to guiding auditionees through the process.”

Sharon Osbourne will also return as a judge for The X Factor UK’s live shows while Dermot O’Leary is back as presenter.

The X Factor UK S15 will air same day as the U.K. on Blue Ant Entertainment this September.
