Dr. Edgardo Cortez, president and CEO of SLMC, said the partnership would pave the way for a professional relationship that will benefit both patients and doctors.
Under the agreement, the hospital’s patients - in both Bonifacio Global City and Quezon City facilities - with medical cases regarded as most unusual, rare or very complex can be discussed with Mayo Clinic’s specialists through live video.
