ARMMC is one of the worst hospitals in the Phils. Pls do not go there!…read more My mother is turning 80 years old this December. She has osteoarthritis due to a fall, stable angina, dementia, type 2 diabetes, and her legs are swollen due to abscesses (pockets of pus producing clear fluid). She was admitted to the ER in this hospital. The doctor only obtained her blood pressure, which is 101/74 mmHg, and heart rate, which is 101 bpm, but did not assess her oxygen saturation level, respiratory rate, temperature, or pain scale. The doctor immediately asked my sister and me if they could give my mother mechanical intubation, which I know is an invasive treatment but we refused. She was given a simple mask 10L instead. The doctor suggested to send her for dialysis but we refused because of her age and health conditions and even suggested to amputate her legs due to wounds & continuous swelling. The nurse had difficulties placing the nasogastric tube (NGT) (she seems like inexperience nurse, student nurse) I could see my mom is in deep pain. This hospital doesn't give pain killer to patients all they are concern is to give the mechanical intubation as a quick treatment. They are very poor in managing patient's pain. At last she was transferred to Chronic Disease ward after staying three days in ER. I dont know if my mother will survive any longer in this hospital:-(

It's an open secret (or, at least, it's the general notion) that most government hospitals in the…read morePhilippines are not adequately equipped nor are the corridors spick and span. So when I entered ARMMC, I was pleasantly surprised. It surely did not belong to the general category of government hospitals. In fact, its main lobby, based on design, looked like a modest version of St. Lukes Medical Center - Quezon City. There's a chandelier in the middle and the main motif is green. In terms of equipment, I was again impressed that they outdid their wealthier neighboring hospitals in one important aspect - ARMMC has an MRI. Our family had been looking for a nearby hospital offering MRI services. This was the last place we thought we could find what we were looking for. But, it's a fact: ARMMC is the only hospital in Marikina with MRI service.

For a satellite clinic, it has dependable services, largely having to do with laboratory examinations. This clinic offers free blood pressure readings and tests like x-ray, ultrasound, urinalysis, fecalysis, creatinine and BUN, ECG, fasting blood sugar, and blood analysis among many others. They even offer various packages for executive check-up. They advise you when you need medical services which they cannot provide. Also, this clinic has a good number of doctors whose specializations cover the usual needs of people: cardiology, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, family medicine, ENT, internal medicine, and even dermatology. Lastly, there is a small pharmacy which can give you immediate service for the medicine just prescribed by the doctor you consulted.

All the medical staffs are always having a smiley face. They always joke around so that the patients can not feel the sadness and cannot be scared of their conditions. The doctors there may always busy, but they always have time if someone is asking them. Their Nurses and Nursing Attendants are always leaving a good impression that impacted the patients lives. Will never forget our experience in East Avenue Medical Center. Especially on how they treat the patients in there. The people there may not be perfect, but they always doing their best.

We went here for a check-up of my son around 8am, went directly to the emergency room. We filled up…read morethe necessary forms. The nurse then weighted my son afterwards we went to the xray room. We waited for almost 2 hrs before one of the doctors advised to have a cbc count. We waited again for another several hours, when the doctors advised that my son needs to be admitted. Its until 2pm when we finally got a room. We've waited for almost 6hrs thinking that there are only a few patients and the nurses are just making chitchats. When we are on our room, my son peed the bedsheet, he don't have any diaper on just the plastic urine collector. In the first place, they should have requested the urine when we waited for almost 6hours at the emergency room. I requested for the bedsheet to be changed and the nurse mentioned promptly that it would have an additional charge. I said its fine because the bedsheet was wet. We waited again for almost 2 hrs and if I didn't update them at the nurse station, no one would change it. Right now we are on the third day and don't have any definite results yet but one thing is for sure, we will not go back here or recommend this place to mu friends.

We filled a complaint letter in capitol but never heard any resolution.
