Philippine Dental Association Pangasinan Chapter Officers Meeting
+ Dr. Cherrylyn Birthday Celebration
September 26 2011
Lyceum Northwestern University

PDAPC Meeting

PDAPC Officers Meeting

Happy Birthday Dr. Cherrylyn!

The dentists are out.

Do not be surprised. Everyone deserves a break to get away from their clinics’ hectic schedules. Thus, if our dear patient’s tooth is aching or are in need of prophylaxis, we dentist will attend to them as soon as we get back.

The most frequent getaways in the Philippines are Baguio City, Hundred Islands, Boracay and Palawan to mention a few. But little is known that a couple of hours drive from the City of Dagupan hides a place where you can relax and spend time with mother nature, a perfect weekend destination called Cabo Beach.

Dentist dabarkads Ryan, Ruth, Mila Grace, Lorraine, Jovan, Ivee, Carol, Aracel, Amabel and Agnes enjoyed the serenity and beauty of this hidden white sand beach despite the bumpy ride and the seemingly neverending road. This charming paradise embedded by a jewel like brilliance of the sea water will surely captivate everyone’s heart. Wearied by the daily grind, we unwound in the beach endlessly and got tanned. During the night, we stared at the blackness of the sky and lit a bonfire while feasting on hotdogs and marshmallows. The jokes, laughter, crazy dance grooves kept us awake, and the sound of waves splashing through corals served as our lullabies and the experinces shared are truly worth remembering.
