mWell Helps Thousands of Filipinos in Historic Nationwide Virtual Medical Mission
Filipinos no longer need to bear the burden of outdated medical care. mWell gave the whole country respite from the worries of getting quality medical care with National mWellness Day.
People recognize mWell as the country’s only fully integrated health and wellness mobile app.
Bringing health and wellness closer to people
Kara David, the founder of Project Malasakit, hosted the online event in the National mWellness Day culminating activity.
She stated,
“As caretakers, guardians, or parents, the anxiety and challenges of getting quality medical care heightened, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. The first ever virtual medical mission by mWell PH brings health and wellness closer to people. Nakakalungkot, subalit totoong may kakulangan sa healthcare para tugunan ang pangangailangan ng ating mga kababayan.”
On September 4 and 5, 2021, the first nationwide online medical mission in the Philippines took place via the mWell app by Metro Pacific Health Tech Corporation (MPHTC).
They provided free consultations with primary care and specialized doctors.
Despite hectic schedules in the medical field at this time of crisis, a number of doctors willingly gave their time and expertise to a bigger mission.
In addition, this is giving the gift of wellness to Filipinos.
With the medical community, mWell is transforming the country’s digital health landscape by providing professional consultations, medical diagnosis, care, and treatment plans.
Reaching out to remote patients
A volunteer obstetrician and gynecologist, Dr. Melani Camarillo Espino explained how she adjusted to the pandemic, transitioning from limiting her clinic calls to telemedicine so she can be contacted at any time and any place.
The mWell platform cleared her initial apprehension because she discovered how user-friendly it is and technical support was prompt.
Furthermore, she recommended it to her patients, saying,
“Using mWell is just like making a private house call with my patients from the comforts of their homes. The flow of my virtual consultations is smooth, plus I gained more patients through the app.”
Being one of the volunteers for National Wellness Day, she wants to reach out to more patients even in remote areas who are afraid to go out, and provide quality and accessible health care via the use of mWell app.
Moreover, building momentum to accelerate positive change in healthcare, mWell now features 24/7 doctor on-call services.
Filipinos can consult with a doctor anytime through the mWell app.
They can do so through online teleconsultations from a roster of general practitioners and specialty doctors nationwide.
Lastly, people can receive much-needed access to health professionals from the safety and comfort of home with this app.
