He also holds a clinic at the branch near our village but at the time when we really need to see him, he was at Montillano. So, off drive to the northern part of Alabang. Alabang Med Main is a small hospital that is very accessible to the public. The majority of the patients belong to the masa so don't expect to see guards opening the door for you nor a concierge to answer your inquiries and assist you with your other concerns. Alcohol and sanitizers are scarce. Ceiling fans and not ACs are used for ventilation. It's kind of a self-service hospital. When you go there, you get a number from the nurse's station, where around five nurses are attending to other patients, and wait for your number to be called. As soon as you are called, a nurse will record your vital signs on an index card which they will file on their library-like catalogue cabinet. The nurse will then give you another number and you need to wait for your turn right outside the doctor's clinic. Doctors don't get assisted, too, unlike in bigger hospitals. While Alabang Medical Clinic Main may not be an air conditioned and full-service hospital, it has very accommodating nurses who don't snap at patients despite the bulk of their workload. Alabang Med also has good doctors who give proper diagnosis and appropriate treatment to all patients regardless of their paying capability. We have peace of mind whenever we walk out from the doctor's clinic and relieved that we have received the proper treatment.

I just don't like the feeling of waiting in hospitals, and you can't just leave and skip the checkup. Healthway Alabang is one of the best ambulatory healthcare providers I know. They have everything you need for your health needs; they can handle laboratory procedures and diagnostic imaging so you don't need to go to a big hospital if you need to have a blood test or an ultrasound done. They have a pharmacy as well. The waiting areas are comfy enough, but if you don't feel like staying there, the best part in this clinic is that it's inside Alabang Town Center, so you can do your shopping while waiting for your check-up (just make sure that you inform the doctor's assistant or the staff assigned so they can contact you when it's already your turn).

In my family, you don't go to the doctor unless you really, really have to. That means that colds,…read morefevers, coughs, and other common sicknesses get ignored and are only treated with bed rest and lots of fluids. That's just how we roll. But because of this, I've always kind of felt like getting a personal medical card would never really be maximized. This is the reason why I really appreciate Healthway. They have any kind of doctor that you'd need, and it's the type where you can just pop into the one nearest you. This particular branch gets pretty full, because it's the only medical facility in Town Center. But the nurses are all very helpful, and in my experience I've never had a doctor that seemed to be rushing me just because they had a long queue or because they're ready to go home. It's really the best outpatient facility around, so I highly recommend them.

We went in their ER department. My patient is experiencing pain near her ribs but no stomach pain…read more This was also explained to the ER doctor. However , she was injected with buscopan and 2 other meds for stomach pain. Next is chest xray, ecg, blood chem, urinalysis, test for stroke. We waited 3 hours for the xray result. Hoewever when i followed up they have no radiologist to read the result. So the ER read it. I aired ny concerns on the slow service. After the series of exam that cost us php13T for 2.5 hours in ER. We were advised that maybe its just muscle pain. The worst thing is that they told my patient to vacate the bed while i am paying. She was ushered to our car and no nurse aasited. Another worst rhing is that they dis not take the heplock out of her hands. They are not professional but expensive. There are more but i guess I am clear in my message. Dont go to this hospital. Not worth it.

It…read morewas our family friend, who works as part of the laboratory team, who suggested that we bring our little one to this health hub. At first, it was only for our son's prescribed vaccinations. Later on, this facility has become our go-to for our baby's health concerns. We are so blessed to have been referred by our friend to a very good, super friendly and accommodating pedia. She answers our inquiries knowledgeably and even anticipates our other concerns. She is one of the few doctors who gives out her mobile number and actually replies to our SMS even on weekends. Should you need a reliable and good doctor for your children, just look for Dra. Pamela Roxas. Now, about Tokyo Healthlink, per se. I prefer going to this Japanese-affiliated health facility for a number of reasons. First, it is not as crowded as the other hospitals and clinics that we've been to. Therefore, the probability of catching communicable diseases has been minimized. Second, it accepts our health card and other major HMOs. Third, their nurses are very efficient and patient in getting the vital signs of kids who are too scared of being touched by medical practitioners. Lastly, they have a very clean and cozy waiting area for patients and their companions. Though they may have clean restrooms, there is no changing table in any of them. I expect that there should be at least one because female restrooms in Japan are equipped with changing tables and child carriers mounted inside each cubicle. Overall, the Tokyo Healthlink facility at El Molito, which is right across Alabang Town Center (ATC for Southern peeps) is a good health hub that will surely cater to your health-related concerns without the stressful hospital atmosphere.

They even have an app you can quickly login to to preserve all your details! That warrants so much praise from me. It's fairly busy given the proximity of hospitals in the area.

Just hope they publish standard fees for their services.

Hubby and I used to go there for my monthly CBC (complete blood count) as required by my OB-GYN and my hematologist, my second ultrasound, and for my GTT (glucose tolerance test). We were like hanging out because the length of our visits would sometimes go beyond a couple of hours, waiting for my turn. Though I have an HMO card, courtesy of my husband, the prescribed tests were not covered because they are pregnancy-related. If I were to sum it all, these tests are not pocket-friendly but they are mandatory to ensure my good health and that of my baby. Being a budget-conscious kind of a woman, I decided to have my tests elsewhere. Somewhere that we can save but the tests and their results would not be compromised. HP Plus clearly fits the bill. I used to bring my Mom to that same facility for her gastro exam and we were completely satisfied with how her test was conducted and how the results were delivered. HP Plus Alabang would almost always be filled with patients. It's a good thing that this branch has been renovated to accommodate more people and to make waiting time more comfortable. The staff are very courteous, helpful, and patient in dealing with guests of varying temper. Sally is my favorite. She is one of the medical technologists and you would often see her at the reception counter. Depending on the type of test, results are promptly provided and may be accessed and downloaded from their website. It was one of the things I loved about HP Plus. I do not have to claim a copy of my test results at the center just so I could show something to my doctors. All I had to do was to present the PDFs saved on my iPad. Pretty convenient, isn't it? If you are from Muntinlupa and you need to undergo laboratory exams, x-rays, and other diagnostic tests (they even do paternal tests!), you may want to consider HP Plus in Alabang. You are sure to get quality service and reliable results without going over your budget.
