Having unsuccessfully gone under the knife three times with homegrown medical specialists, former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo may be losing faith that local doctors can still fix her lingering cervical spine problem, one of her allies said on Friday.
The cardiologist who said that former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo had a “life-threatening” blockage in her neck has advised the Pampanga representative to seek a second opinion from a specialist in New York, according to Arroyo ally, Quezon Rep. Danilo Suarez.
Former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo was taken to Makati Medical Center (MMC) on Monday for examination after the dislocation of the titanium plate supporting her cervical spine, a condition that a doctor at the hospital described as life-threatening.
The dream has begun. In a ceremony Tuesday at state-run Rizal Medical Center, its officials and those of Makati Medical Center (MMC) Foundation launched a program aimed at transforming the Pasig City hospital into a facility as good as a private hospital.
Former President and now Pampanga Representative Gloria Macapagal Arroyo will undergo diagnostic procedures to know the cause of her heart constriction at the Makati Medical Center, Radyo Inquirer 990AM reported Thursday.
