Just ask - Going for medical treatment in Philippine ?

Hi Suxiang some of my friends had been giving quite a good positive feedback about the medical service in Philippine  like afford ability and Cost-effectiveness. The low cost of medical procedures is the number one reason why my Singaporean friends came to Philippine for medical treatments. The savings range between 30% and 80% of the cost that you would normally pay in Singapore,due to the good currency conversion rate which is $1 to Php32. The only setback is strictly cash, no ,CPF coverage here.
Intially, some of my friends who are doubt about the low prices of medical procedures and surgery here and worry that medical treatment here might be fraud or a scam. They soon realized that the main reason behind the low prices of medical treatments abroad is the low cost of labor in Philippine. Comparing Specialized nurse in Singapore earn  $S4000, while nurses in Philippines is getting a low salary and may be they will paid between US169 dollars in the most cities, but the rural area is less then even merely got salary between US$75 till US$95 dollars a month, but when Philippines nurses going abroad they will getting salary from 3,000 to 4,000 U.S. dollars a month.
Although the treatments are cheap, in most cases surgical procedures are performed by well trained experts who are using top notch technology. In addition, the lower costs of malpractice, insurance and administration also contribute to the low prices of overseas medical procedures. If you need to just drop me an email and I try to do the booking for you.
