"I trust him (Dr. Joson), even if I haven't met him, because he has the courage to fight tradition for what he thinks is helpful for the Filipino people" | |
|
" I wrote about Dr. Joson's mission (to let people know that circumcision is not necessary) because it is true: Circumcision really and truly in unnecessary." | |

"We are perinatologists at the Perinatal Center, Philippine Children's Medical Center. Since 1988 we have not been doing circumcision at birth and have advised against circumcision of adolescents inspite of parents pressure and peer pressure. We try to convince the parents that circumcision is no longer necessary according to epidemiologic studies. " Corazon Yabes-Almirante M.D. (February, 2003) | |
