THE CebuDoc Group has always been at the forefront of innovative healthcare solutions. Its newest addition, the Center for Advanced Nutrition (CAN), is no exception. This multi-disciplinary nutrition intervention center is the first-of-its-kind in the Visayas and Mindanao region and aims to promote positive nutrition practices, becoming the cornerstone of nutrition in the Philippines.

“The Center for Advanced Nutrition is the newest addition to CebuDoc Group’s Wellness Centers. It is the region’s first multi-disciplinary nutrition intervention center. We envision CAN becoming the pioneer for other sister hospitals to promote positive nutrition practices,” said Dr. Potenciano S.D “Yong” Larrazabal III, CebuDoc Group president and chairman of the board.

CAN offers a comprehensive range of services, including weight management, kidney care nutrition, diabetes nutrition therapy, cancer nutrition, meal planning, bioelectrical impedance analysis and indirect calorimetry, serving both inpatients and outpatients at a cost within their reach. What sets CAN apart from other nutrition centers is its focus on excellence, evidenced-based research and multi-specialty approach, involving dietitians, nurses, pharmacists and physicians’ subspecialties.

“Nutrition is a very complicated science because it is connected to every body function. What makes the center different is that it is a multi-specialty center that involves the dietician, the nurse, the pharmacist and all the other subspecialties of physicians. It focuses on their communication with each other,” shared Dr. Mary Karen Woolbright.
