“We wanted to make sure that we would get the best system for our patients.” Dr. Rolando Florendo, the hospital director says of the system. “We went through a process where a total of 5 suppliers from all over the world were assessed. We reviewed patient outcomes from each system and compared them closely. Most of all, we reviewed the costs of operations and maintenenace of each system to ensure that our patients may benefit from this technology with minimal costs to them. The Covidien LigasureTM system was eventually chosen for the job. We found that it was also easy of use for our surgeons and staff. The system fits directly into Mary Chiles’ mission of offering consistent, quality, and up-to-date medical care.”
Mary Chiles General Hospital department of surgery has also noted that the use of such an advanced product will keep its surgical residents up to date with the latest surgical trends. Mary Chiles General Hospital offers a 5 year residency program in general surgery along with its consortium partner, Pasig City General Hospital. Dubbed as a program which offers “The best of both worlds”, the surgical program at Mary Chiles General Hospital consistently produces world-class surgeons. Mary Chiles General Hospital is also an accredited Surgical Trauma Center by the DOH.
