Filipinos are hustling hard these days as the cost of living rises, including healthcare. So, the words ‘accessible’ and ‘economical’ are not often associated with it. A single trip to the hospital for a check-up or lab tests can drain one’s energy with the long commute and strain the budget because it means missing work, especially for daily-wage earners.
Healthcare, the kind that is convenient, unhurried, genuinely attentive, and done within a comfortable space, has long felt like something reserved only for those who can afford it.
That is, until recently.
Content creators Jana Berenguer, Stephen Legaspi, and Kim Villamor recently shared their experiences at the Maxicare Clinics. From the looks of it, the brand is out to change the status quo by providing everyone with easier, walk-in access to a quality healthcare experience.
Entrepreneur, content creator, and cerebral palsy education advocate, Jana is no stranger to hospitals. As a mom to Alonzo, whose cerebral palsy journey she openly shares with her followers, she has been to just about every institution with specialists in the field. One of her bigger issues has always been the long wait line and uncomfortable environment, which leaves Alonzo restless. Then there’s the consolidation of services.
In her video, she shows how anyone, at any age, can access Maxicare Clinics, including those with pre-existing conditions. Like how she was able to get a full preventive consultation for herself–which includes laboratory tests, ultrasound, and OBGYN consultation–and a routine check for Alonzo with a specialist in just one visit.
“We’re always grateful to see people share their positive experiences in our clinics,” says Maxicare Group Chief Customer Officer Raymond Hernandez. “Maxicare Clinics are designed to change how our countrymen experience healthcare, including those with special needs. For one, we made sure that accessibility will never be an issue for our patients. Additionally, even the hallways of our clinics are made very spacious to accommodate wheelchairs and large strollers. Digital signs are also placed strategically around the clinic to help everyone better navigate their way through our facility. So, no need for you to guess which room you need to go to next, because you’ll already see your name pop up on a small screen next to the door when it’s your turn to enter.”
Lifestyle content creator Stephen Legaspi, whose rise to fame can be attributed to his reviews of things that are worth spending on, shared how pleasantly surprised he was by how efficient his checkup was at a Maxicare Clinic.
“I didn’t expect it to be that seamless,” he said in his TikTok video. In the same video, he also highlighted that each clinic offers different lab tests, that some clinics have therapy rooms, and that you can save the trouble of securing a Letter of Authorization (LOA) to avail of services.
This experience, he shares, differs from visiting a traditional hospital, especially with its modern facilities like the automatic handwashing corner and free coffee offered within the facility.
Cebuana lifestyle content creator Kim Villamor, whose sulit finds content is also notable, agrees that visiting a Maxicare Clinic is worth your time and money. In her Facebook video, she simply walked into a Maxicare Clinic and was pleased with how convenient her visit turned out.
She’s also glad that different Maxicare Clinic branches around Cebu are accessible, whether you’re coming from home or work.
Anyone can walk into any of the 51 Maxicare Clinics nationwide for their care needs. Whether it’s for consultations, lab tests, or diagnostic exams, the clinics are accessible to them anytime. All of these features are provided with people’s convenience in mind.
“We are strategically opening more clinics to bring this experience to more communities. Everyone deserves this. Regardless of lifestyle, whether you’re single, a parent, or elderly, preventive healthcare done with comfort and ease should not feel out of reach. Maxicare Clinics are here to put care back in healthcare. And we are doing everything we can to continuously improve for everyone,” Hernandez ends.
