AZ asked for physician referrals in St. Luke’s Global City, for
her arthritis, which she said was acting up due to the weather. Ortho KB referred us to the head Dr. Canlas, and also Drs. Tabera and Tanchuling.
Photo taken on January 21, 2010, when I consulted my endo, Dr. Joy Fontanilla.
I went up the escalator, to see my endo at the Endocrine Center
A pianist was playing when I was there. Like it.
DSdR, also our SLG referror, asked me why I was taking photos.
Didn't occur to me then that I would be using these photos. 
I told Dr. Fontanilla that it was so relaxing there, now that there are still no clinics.
When I went to St. Luke’s Global, a maintenance guy told me that I should see the huge suite. He offered to take my photo. I agreed. I complained to him and to Dr. D that there are only four ladies’ cubicles on the ground floor, that there should be like twenty when the place goes full-blast.
The Endocrine Center charged me
P 200+ facilitation fee, that’s aside from the doctor’s professional fee. My endo would not charge me at Medical City, where she used to be based. When I went to St. Luke’s Global, I had a driver. I think that it’s too far now, that I’ll probably switch endos just because of the distance, to my parents’ endo, Dr. Ruby Go, at Cardinal Santos Medical Center. Also, I can keep an eye on my parents’ health that way. I had stuck with Dr. Fontanilla because she’s just so nice and easy to talk with. Aside from her curing/alleviating my hyperthyroidism. Her secretary, Bernadeth, is extra-friendly without being presumptious. A perfect team that I would have a hard time finding elsewhere.
I got two texts from the Endocrine Center yesterday, asking me if I was still showing up for my appointment with Dr. Fontanilla, which I forgot! One of the texters, Thierry, texted in dizzying mixed case.
Efren tells me that St. Luke’s Global will only have fine dining facilities, no lower-end food places. Does anyone have any confirmed info on this?
One Cardinal doctor complained that the accredited contractors were charging P 350,000 to P 700,000 for labor, and that when her clinic was supposedly ready for turnover, that the flooring was not yet done, and that her door was made of plywood, not solid wood as stipulated in her contract. Maybe this is what another doctor from St. Luke’s Medical Center-Quezon City meant when she said that the St. Luke’s Global contract is one-sided.
All roads seem to lead to Bonifacio Global City these days, with the move of PhilPlans and Philhealth Care, Inc. from the Philamlife Bldg. on United Nations Avenue. Incidentally, isn’t Philhealth confusing with the government entity?
General Milling has also moved from Makati to Bonifacio Global City, around last year.
My friend in General Milling, MF’s sis E also works in Bonifacio Global City. E used to work in Makati.
My clients who live there are related to each other. One used to be based in the US.
