How a Bukidnon Doctor Turns Her Operating Room Into a Place of Peace, Worship, and Healing
Operating rooms are typically high-tension spaces—bright lights, urgent decisions, constant pressure.
But in Bukidnon, OBGYN Dr. Diana Javier-Tecson has developed a working environment that helps her team stay clear, composed, and purposeful—even on the busiest days.
Dr. Diana Javier-Tecson shared not one, but two extraordinary moments, both involving the Grade 12 students of Mountain View College Academy (MVCA)—and both unfolding inside operating rooms that unexpectedly became spaces of worship.
On November 12, 2025, she welcomed Grade 12 students from Mountain View College (MVC)—a well-loved Adventist institution in Valencia City, Bukidnon—into the operating room for their observation duty. Coincidentally, it was one of her most demanding days: six surgeries back-to-back.
But Bukidnon has this way of turning even the busiest spaces into scenes of grace.
During one of the more challenging procedures, she allowed the students to step in and observe. Soft Nebblett music played in the background… and then she noticed something beautiful:
The students were quietly singing along.
She encouraged them to keep going.
And right there, in the middle of a high-stakes surgery, something extraordinary happened. Their gentle harmonies filled the OR—peace replacing pressure, worship softening the weight of the moment. The space felt transformed… like a small sanctuary hidden inside a hospital.
Dr. Diana described it with a simplicity that says everything:
“It felt calm, sacred… as if heaven itself drew near.”
And the surgery became one of the best she has ever performed.
Another operation with the MVCA students showed the impact of her environment in a different way.
During a cesarean section, as soon as the baby was delivered and cried for the first time, the students began singing:
“To God Be the Glory.”
It wasn’t orchestrated.
It wasn’t dramatic.
It was a sincere response to witnessing new life enter the world.
For Dr. Diana, it aligned perfectly with what she believes:
“God—the Maker, the Healer, and the Giver of Life.
Every birth is a reason for praise.
Another life has entered the world, another opportunity for His love to be expressed.”
The room didn’t feel emotional—it felt grounded in purpose.
She added:
“May we remember that the purpose of our existence is to seek Him, to share Him, and to glorify Him by letting Jesus Christ be seen in our lives.”
And to the students:
“Thank you MVCA Grade 12 students for making this cesarean section unforgettable.
To God be the glory.”
Dr. Diana Javier-Tecson’s operating room shows that intentionality matters just as much as skill. By creating an environment of calm, focus, and purpose, she not only guides her team to perform at their best but also allows moments of faith and gratitude to naturally unfold—even in the most routine or high-pressure surgeries. In her hands, the OR becomes more than a place for procedures; it becomes a space where healing, professionalism, and reverence coexist.
