However, aside from these,\u00a0there are a lot more aspects linked with dermatology that makes it a very interesting thing to study.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The interest to venture more on what the field can offer is the reason why Dr. Emmerson Vista is now a board-certified dermatologist with a subspecialty in Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Dr. Emmerson Vista MD, FPDS,<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"> DPVS<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><br \/>\n<em><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">Dermatology and Venereology<\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-54306\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/03\/Dr-Emmerson-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/03\/Dr-Emmerson-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/03\/Dr-Emmerson-290x218.jpg 290w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/03\/Dr-Emmerson-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/03\/Dr-Emmerson-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/03\/Dr-Emmerson.jpg 1984w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Talking to Dr. Emmerson Vista, one will realize that dermatology is indeed more than what meets the eye. Coming from a family of doctors, Dr. Vista has always been on track to becoming one, mentioning that his dad is one of his biggest inspirations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">He finished medicine at the University of Sto. Tomas and had his residency at the Research Institute for Tropical Medicine (RITM), then proceeded to Singapore and Germany for further training in his chosen specialties. When asked why he chose to specialize in dermatology, Dr. Vista said that everything about the field excited him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">&#8220;The skin conditions, how to diagnose them using your clinical eye, using all your knowledge when you read the book. Bonus point that this is also the field for cosmetic medicine,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Dr. Vista also has a\u00a0<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">subspecialty in STIs or venereology, which he attributes to his love for dermatology as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to him, most STIs will manifest in varied skin conditions, and if one doesn\u2019t have the clinical eye of a dermatologist, chances are it\u2019s going to be misdiagnosed. Since he is catering to sensitive cases, Dr. Vista makes sure to establish rapport with his patients for them to be able to open up about their symptoms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">His advice to aspiring doctors is simple yet has been proven to be effective for most: be resilient because medicine is not for the weak-hearted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><b>Make an appointment<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>1102\u00a0 Medical Arts Bldg., St. Luke\u2019s Medical Center Global City<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mondays to Wednesdays, Fridays to Saturdays: 1 pm to 5 pm<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Contact: 02-789-7700 loc 7102 \/ 0905-682-3204 (Ms. Sheila)<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"><em>This first appeared in Philippine Primer English magazine\u2019s March 2020 issue<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The interest to venture more on what the field of dermatology can offer is the reason why Dr. Emmerson Vista is now a board-certified dermatologist with a subspecialty in Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":54309,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3683],"tags":[7598,6257,12902,3684,6400],"class_list":["post-54304","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-medical-feature","tag-dermatologist","tag-doctors-in-manila","tag-dr-emmerson-vista","tag-medical-feature","tag-st-lukes-medical-center"],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2020\/03\/dr.emmerson_featured.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54304","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=54304"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54304\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":54384,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54304\/revisions\/54384"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/54309"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=54304"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=54304"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=54304"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
