“Visited the Hospital for a full body checkup. The process from start to end was smooth, although it did take time to complete all the tests and to get the reports. Ms.Angel our guide for the whole processes was very good and her service is very much appreciated, also a special shout out to Ms.Julie who assisted me and my parents on our previous visit, glad to see that your hardwork is paying off careers wise!
