If you or a loved one is dealing with a wound that won’t heal—whether from diabetes, surgery, pressure injuries, or other chronic conditions—you’re not alone. Many Filipinos suffer in silence, unsure where to turn for proper treatment. The truth is, not all wounds can or should be managed by a general physician. Complex or non-healing wounds require the attention of a trained wound specialist doctor who can address both the wound itself and the underlying causes.
That’s where Kalingap Wound Care Clinic in Quezon City steps in. Designed with the Filipino patient in mind, Kalingap offers compassionate, advanced, and affordable wound care that truly makes a difference.

Meet Dr. Lou Mervyn Tec – A Trusted Wound Specialist Doctor
At the heart of Kalingap’s success is Dr. Lou Mervyn Tec, a board-certified orthopedic surgeon and wound care specialist. With international training in Japan and Australia, Dr. Tec brings world-class expertise back to his roots in the Philippines.
He is highly skilled in advanced techniques like ultrasonic-assisted debridement and negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT)—methods proven to speed up healing and prevent complications like infections or amputations.
But what sets him apart isn’t just his credentials. Patients know Dr. Tec for his kind, patient-first approach. He listens, explains, and treats each person with empathy. As he often says, “It’s not just about treating the wound—it’s about healing the person.”
