SM Foundation (SMFI) recently provided free medical and dental consultations and medicines to more than 480 patients during its medical mission at SM City Sta. Mesa, and to more than 400 patients at SM City Novaliches in Quezon City.
Other diagnostic services were also offered including x-ray, ECG, sugar test, cholesterol test, uric acid test and hemoglobin test. This social good initiative was made possible through collaboration with the Philippine Red Cross–Quezon City Chapter, and volunteer doctors and dentists from Manila, Quezon City and Caloocan.
SMFI, through its Health and Medical Programs, upgrades public health centers in its host communities, complemented by its medical caravans across the country. To date, it has renovated more than 170 health and wellness centers and served almost 1.2 million patients during its medical missions.
