MANILA – Hayden Kho is a doctor, once more; and he couldn’t wait to share the news.

The 34-year-old medical professional  took to Instagram on Monday night to post a photo of a document signed on July 7 by Miguel Noche, Jr., chairman of the Professional Regulation Commission’s (PRC) Board of Medicine, reinstating Kho to his practice.

It will be remembered that five years, the medical board revoked Kho’s medical license as a result of his involvement in a sex video scandal in 2009.

The portion of the document which is visible in Kho’s post reads as follows: “Resultantly, we are constrained to construe complainant’s failure to oppose as desistance or waiver of her right to object to the petition. As the case stands, petitioner’s allegations regarding his qualifications and achievement remain unrebutted.

“We see no cogent reason to further burden petitioner with the remnants of a reckless faux pas when his overall conduct shows a manifestly repentant heart. While others simply passively wait for the period revocation to lapse, petitioner positively and quickly acted to prove himself a worthy medical doctor to this Board and the Commission.

“Wherefore, all premises considered and for reasons of equity and justice, the Board hereby grants petitioner’s petition for reinstatement. Dr. Hayden Kho is hereby reinstated to the practice as medical doctor.”
