Watsons Alagang Pangkalusugan Brings Medical Care to 923 Mandaluyong Residents


Watsons Philippines, the leading health and beauty retailer in the country, helps hundreds of beneficiaries in different cities and towns by providing free medical services and medicine through the Alagang Pangkalusugan initiative.

As the initiative’s first Metro Manila stop for the year, Watsons visited Mandaluyong College of Science & Technology in Mandaluyong City last July 6 for a medical mission that benefited 923 beneficiaries from the city’s different barangays.

The Watsons medical mission was supported by Mandaluyong local government, officer partners from the City Health Board and also partner brands.

Present during the event were Mandaluyong Vice Mayor Carmelita “Menchie” Aguilar Abalos, Councilor Charisse Marie Abalos-Vargas, City Health Officer Dr. Arnold Abalos, and Addition Hills Barangay Captain Carlito Cernal.

Among the free medical services that the medical mission offered to Mandaluyong residents were doctor’s consultations, ECG, X-ray, hearing check, eye test, and massage.
