What are emergency services like in Philippines?
When we asked members about emergency services in Philippines, they wrote...
"I am within 5km of many good hospitals. The main ones I seek service from are Angeles University Foundation Hospital and Clark Medical Center. The care I have received from both places has been great. I believe that both are private," explained one expat living in Angeles City, Philippines.
"Emergency/outpatient care is available 24/7. I seldom have to wait much for care. For an emergency requiring any sort of high-tech equipment, we would have to be transported to Baguio City, a six-hour drive. However, the human, professional care here is very high quality," said another in Bontoc, Philippines.
