Get to know

Monica Pecache, MD

I completed my post graduate training in Orthopedics and Sports Medicine in St. Lukes Medical Center in Quezon City, Philippines. Immediately after my residency I spent 3 months in Clermont Ferrand, France under Dr. Pierre Metais among others mainly for additional training in shoulder surgery. I then completed 2 years of hand and microsurgery at the Christine M. Kleinert Institute of Hand and Microsurgery. I have a particular interest in hand and wrist trauma, tendon surgery and malunion correction and sports injuries.
