Moreover, BMC is establishing a Stroke Unit staffed by specialized experts to address a wide range of neurological conditions and provide personalized treatment plans. The hospital is also improving its CANDEV facility, the first hospital-based multidisciplinary center for children with special needs.

"We have always been at the forefront of healthcare innovation in the region and the country. We strive to surpass our past achievements because our patients deserve the best. We want to assure them that they are safe and well cared for the moment they step into BMC," said Mr. Ronnie Santos, BMC's CEO.
