June 3, 2026 marked a milestone of hope and mobility at The Medical City as 20 inspiring children officially "graduated" from The Medical City Clubfoot Clinic. Held in conjunction with World Clubfoot Day, the graduation celebrated these resilient kids who have successfully completed their treatment journeys and are now free to walk, run, and play happily. 

As the largest private hospital partner of the Philippine National Clubfoot Program (PNCP), The Medical City remains at the forefront of eradicating clubfoot disability in the country.

One of the biggest hurdles for families seeking specialized orthopedic care is financial strain. To ensure no child is left behind, The Medical City reminds the public that services at the Clubfoot Clinic are covered by PhilHealth. This partnership drastically reduces out-of-pocket expenses, making world-class, life-changing orthopedic treatment accessible to more Filipino families. 

Seeing these 20 graduates run across the room is a powerful reminder that clubfoot is fully treatable. Through early intervention, expert clinical care, and financial support systems, The Medical City continues to turn complex medical journeys into stories of triumph and movement. 

Is your child or a loved one struggling with clubfoot? Reach out to the The Medical City Clubfoot Clinic today.
