From Low-cost Kapon to Comprehensive Care: Looking ahead with Dr. Joden Sumeldan

"Biyaya Animal Care's journey started with a simple, yet powerful mission: to make quality veterinary care accessible para sa lahat," reflects Dr. Joden Sumeldan, Chief Medical Director and co-founder of Biyaya Animal Care. "Our first clinic in Katarungan was a testament to that – a low-cost kapon clinic providing essential services to a community in need."

From those humble beginnings, Biyaya Animal Care has grown significantly, expanding its reach with branches in Mandala and Rockwell. But growth isn't just about location; it's about evolving to meet the ever-changing needs of the animals we serve. Our Mandala branch now houses a full-fledged hospital facility, equipped to handle everything from routine wellness consultations and vaccinations to complex surgeries and emergency care. We've invested in advanced laboratory and diagnostic equipment, and offer specialized services like therapy and rehabilitation to give pets the best possible chance at recovery.

"But our commitment extends beyond our clinic walls," Dr. Sumeldan emphasizes. "We recognize the critical need for responsible pet ownership and accessible veterinary expertise. That's why Biyaya Animal Care is actively involved in training programs for local vet clinics, sharing our expertise in mass kapon surgery techniques. By empowering other clinics, we can collectively make a greater impact on animal welfare."

Looking to the future, Dr. Sumeldan envisions Biyaya Animal Care at the forefront of veterinary medicine in the Philippines. "We are constantly exploring opportunities to expand our services and incorporate global medical advances. Specializations like orthopedics as well as more therapy and rehabilitation services are definitely on the horizon, allowing us to address a wider range of needs and provide even more comprehensive care."

This expansion, however, will always remain true to Biyaya's core mission. "Our growth is not just about expanding our services; it's about deepening our commitment to animal welfare," Dr. Sumeldan explains. "Every step we take, every new service we offer, is guided by our unwavering dedication to providing compassionate, accessible care to all animals, regardless of their background or circumstances. We strive for a future where all animals receive the quality care they deserve, and Biyaya Animal Care will continue to lead the way."
