“Antique has been one of our strong allies in Western Visayas as referrals for critical cases, specifically for neuro and cardio cases, as reflected in our data. That is why we are thankful to our partner doctors here for considering TMC Iloilo as their referral hub for critical cases,” said Dr. Debbie Noblezada-Uy, TMC Iloilo Critical Care Intensivist, and Chief Medical Officer.
