About the Provider
Dr. Rodomelle Mungcal can summarize his best patient advice in just three words: "Trust the process.” That's because he believes health care is an ongoing partnership - so he treats his patients the same way he would wish to be treated when seeing his own doctor. "I believe in listening closely to my patients, as I help them focus on lifestyle modifications and preventing illness. I encourage my patients to email or call me if symptoms should arise or worsen."
He particularly likes working with his patients who are dealing with issues like metabolic syndrome, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and high cholesterol.
Maybe that patient-doctor teamwork orientation comes from his lifelong love of basketball. These days, Dr. Mungcal primarily plays hoops with his three sons - the oldest of whom seems to be following his dad's example as he takes pre-med courses at the University of California, San Diego. Meanwhile, Dr. Mungcal and his wife are keeping their other two boys close at hand, along with Snowball, their rescue dog.
If you're a San Antonio Spurs fan, you might want to allow some extra time for your appointment because that's Dr. Mungcal's favorite NBA team and he might just want to chat about their latest game!
