Metro Pacific Health Corp. (MPH), along with its subsidiary Santos Clinic Inc. (SCI), has acquired a majority stake in San Francisco Doctors Hospital (SFDH) in Agusan del Sur as part of its ongoing effort to expand its healthcare network.
In a statement released on Thursday, MPH announced plans for a significant investment to increase SFDH’s capacity, aiming to meet the growing healthcare demands of Agusan del Sur and neighboring areas.
“Expanding our network through strategic investments like the one in San Francisco Doctors Hospital allows us to bring accessible and dependable healthcare to more communities,” MPH president Augie Palisoc Jr. said.
