Having a brother and a sister who were born with facial deformities, he was determined to become a plastic surgeon. Working as a shoeshine boy, selling newspapers, empanadas, or working as a jeepney conductor/barker, has taught him not only the value of money but also the dignity, honor and power of honest labor. To supplement his college expenses, he worked as a house aide cleaning, doing laundry, ironing and as in-house masseur in his adoptive family house. In school, he remembered preparing the physics and chemistry laboratories for students before and after being used, sometimes, staying late at night until all the laboratory classes were done for the day.He underwent the rigorous training and certifications of an American Plastic, Cosmetic and Reconstructive Surgeon, with sub specialty in facial cancer surgery. He was elected President of the Philippine Association of Plastic Surgeons of America in the early 1990s as well as the President of the Philippine Medical Association of Chicago and the Midwest. He was the founding President of the International Medical Council of Illinois, a coalition of sixteen medical ethnic societies of foreign medical graduates which became a sounding board and lobbying arm on issues of discrimination against international physicians. These xenophobic issues for Foreign medical graduates (FMGs) later called International medical graduates (IMGs) were fought both in Illinois and in the halls of congress in Washington, D.C.He later developed a skin treatment/rejuvenation program JENOR corrESthetiques® for individuals who want to look their best without laser or surgical facelift. He is the author of an acne management program for teens, tweens, and adults with adult onset acne, with emphasis on preventing acne complications. These principles and strategies were gradually adopted in the Philippines but also in the US and other parts of the world. Currently, he is a Visiting and Clinical Professor of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery in his alma mater, Cebu Institute of Medicine, Cebu City, Philippines.view less
