Our warmest CONGRATULATIONS to this exceptional team—for their discipline, composure, and depth of knowledge reflecting countless hours of preparation and true mastery of the fundamentals.

This achievement also reflects the strength of their training institutions—Chong Hua Hospital, Chong Hua Hospital Mandaue and Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center—whose commitment to excellence, mentorship, and rigorous training continues to shape physicians who rise with competence and confidence.

With heartfelt gratitude to the entire P*P Cebu Chapter—your presence filled the room with energy, your voices lifted every round, and your sea of red balloons became a symbol of unity and unwavering support. In every question the team faced, Cebu was behind them—loud, proud, and all in.

At the P*P Heroes Cup 2026, Team Visayas didn’t just compete—we carried each other.
