<p>If you were terrified of going to the OB-GYN as a young girl, you’re definitely not alone. As a teenager in the 2000s, it was a pain point for me to walk into any sterile, impersonal clinic, anxious at the thought of having to, well, open up—figuratively and literally. So when <strong>Eluvo</strong> founder and CEO <strong>Doctor Carol Joanna “Jaycy” Violago-Olivarez</strong> shared that she’d felt the same way regarding her own health check-ups in her opening spiel for the launch, it helped me approach the idea of Eluvo with a lot less apprehension. There is, after all, a certain degree comfort to be found in the hands of someone who has had a similar experience, especially in a situation that has always felt intimidating.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/1c898199-33b6-4c60-9239-95286f9c8c22_1-16.jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><p>Taken from the word ‘ovule,’ Eluvo is a digital and physical healthcare ecosystem that aims to be a reliable and accessible partner to women in every stage of our lives. Its team of experts is set to educate and empower its clientele, helping them make better, well-informed decisions about their health. The presence of a digital clinic makes step one easy. Because all pertinent information is available at our fingertips, it’s easy to do our own research. The next step is to book an online consultation with an Eluvo expert to get all questions answered and to receive an initial diagnosis, if applicable. A test is then scheduled to confirm the diagnosis, which is then followed by medication or a treatment procedure. This process, in summary, is called <strong>Talk, Test,</strong> and<strong> Treat</strong>. And Doctor Jaycy’s ultimate goal? To have everything done in <strong>one day</strong>. </p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/c014fb66-7ff7-4ad9-bcd3-ff1e6326ad3d_1-12.jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><p>Aside from obstetrics and gynecology, Eluvo also specialises in aesthetic gynecology, which deserves to be cast in a stronger spotlight here in the Philippines. Done for cosmetic—though not necessarily medical—reasons, such procedures have seen a marked resurgence in more progressive counties, simply because women have every right to care about how they look and feel down there, especially after giving birth. This practice involves procedures that enhance the look and function of the outer vulva and inner vagina, with some of the most popular ones being Laser Reduction Labiaplasty, Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation, and the much sought after G-Shot. Because this encompasses Doctor Jaycy’s extensive area of expertise, such services are available to our market through Eluvo. In addition, the clinic is also providing mental health and well-being services, as any business that claims to provide the whole nine years when it comes to holistic healthcare cannot ignore this aspect. </p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/aee2b24c-2f89-4eda-93a5-3b492e0f3d9a_1.jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><p>Because Eluvo believes that top-of-the-line quality health services are a fundamental human right, there is no shortchanging or scrimping involved in their process, speedy and efficient as it may be. Excellence and compassion are at the forefront of what they do, and progressive thinking allows them to make a marked impact on women’s healthcare in the Philippines, where we still have a long way to go.</p><div><br/></div><p>Though a brick and mortar clinic is still in the pipeline, Eluvo has already opened multiple doors for women through its digital platform. We now have somewhere to go where we can ask questions, get treated, and help others receive the same positive experience.
