“Patrick Joseph Mabugat is a source of pride for the City of Bacolod and serves both as an inspiration and role model for its youth,” Leonardia said in his EO that he signed yesterday, December 1.
“He has now joined the honorable ranks of prominent and distinguished physician board topnotchers, each being a shining beacon in the practice of medicine,” the mayor added in the EO.
Leonardia presented the framed copy of the EO to Mabugat during the latter’s courtesy call on the mayor at the Bacolod City Government Center where he was accompanied by his fiancée, Dr. Dyan Dimalaluan of E. B. Magalona town, who also passed the same exam.
Joining Leonardia in receiving Mabugat and his fiancée was Atty. John Orola, consultant on tourism, trade, and investment.
Mabugat also made a courtesy visit to Gov. Eugenio Lacson at the Capitol, and thanked him for all the support and encouragement.
