Premier health institution The Medical City (TMC) zeroes in on holistic and preventive health care with the opening of its Lifestyle and Wellness Center in Timog Avenue, Quezon City.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), chronic diseases such as heart disease, stroke, cancer and obesity, account for 75 percent of total healthcare costs.
