WITH the goal of providing Filipinos with access to quality health-care services and elevate the competencies of medical technologists in the country, Singapore Diagnostics is building a new world-class facility in Metro Manila this year.
As part of its expansion plans, the company is also looking forward to establish more facilities, up to 40 in the coming months. It’s eyeing to build more labs in every major city in the Philippines, each outfitted with multi-stage screening systems to ensure that both patients and employees are safe.
“Quality and affordable laboratory tests are very important because they help monitor changes in a patient’s health, and their doctors can work with them on any prevention, diagnosis, and treatment needed. Lab tests can help Filipinos be in the best of health,” Evidente said. “We really cannot blame our health-care workers for wanting to seek greener pastures abroad,” Evidente noted. “Instead, we need to continue providing them excellent training so that we have a steady stream of professionals who can serve both local and international demands.”
In this way, SGD provides Filipino patients with well-educated practitioners and, at the same time, helps retain and boost the impeccable reputation of local talents in the health-care industry the world over. To wit, its highly-skilled roster of Filipino medtechs is a major factor why the company has been continuously accredited by the prestigious College of American Pathologists for its diagnostic services that are of top quality.
