My
recent
encounter
with
St.
Paul's
Hospital
in
Iloilo
was
nothing
short
of
a
harrowing
experience.
I
cannot
express
enough
how
utterly
disappointed
and
frustrated
I
am
with
the
level
of
service
provided
by
this
institution.
First
and
foremost,
finding
parking
at
St.
Paul's
Hospital
is
an
absolute
nightmare.
The
lack
of
parking
spaces
makes
it
incredibly
challenging
for
patients
and
their
families
to
find
a
suitable
spot.
This
added
stress
and
inconvenience
only
serve
to
worsen
an
already
stressful
situation.
To
add
insult
to
injury,
I
had
to
endure
an
excruciating
15-hour
wait
just
to
secure
a
room.
Instead
of
providing
a
comfortable
environment
for
recovery,
I
was
made
to
wait
at
the
Ward,
which
was
highly
inconvenient
and
uncomfortable.
This
extended
delay
not
only
hindered
my
recuperation
but
also
displayed
a
complete
disregard
for
patients'
well-being
and
their
time.
To
compound
matters
further,
the
nursing
staff
mentioned
that
they
would
process
my
PHILHEALTH
coverage.
However,
to
my
dismay,
the
Billing
Department
later
informed
me
that
my
insurance
was
not
covered.
This
misleading
information
resulted
in
unexpected
financial
burden
and
left
me
questioning
the
hospital's
integrity
and
transparency
in
dealing
with
patients'
insurance
matters.
Furthermore,
during
my
brief
two-day
stay,
I
was
subjected
to
a
series
of
incompetence
and
negligence.
I
arrived
at
the
hospital
at
10
am
to
have
my
allergies
checked,
but
due
to
a
lack
of
available
rooms,
I
was
forced
to
wait
in
the
ward
for
an
excruciating
15
hours.
It
was
only
at
1
am
the
following
day
that
I
was
finally
moved
to
a
room.
This
prolonged
delay
in
providing
a
proper
room
not
only
compromised
my
comfort
but
also
showcased
a
complete
lack
of
respect
for
patients'
needs
and
well-being.
Adding
insult
to
injury,
after
enduring
such
a
traumatic
experience,
I
was
slapped
with
an
exorbitant
bill
of
P18,000.00
upon
my
discharge.
The
charges
were
outrageous
and
completely
disproportionate
to
the
level
of
care
and
service
I
received.
It
is
evident
that
St.
Paul's
Hospital
prioritizes
profit
over
the
well-being
of
its
patients,
preying
on
vulnerable
individuals
during
their
most
vulnerable
moments.
In
summary,
St.
Paul's
Hospital
Iloilo
has
demonstrated
a
profound
lack
of
professionalism,
empathy,
and
respect
for
their
patients.
From
the
abysmal
parking
situation
to
the
outrageous
wait
times,
misleading
information
about
insurance
coverage,
and
exorbitant
billing
practices,
this
institution
has
proven
itself
to
be
a
disgrace
to
the
healthcare
profession.
I
strongly
advise
anyone
in
need
of
medical
care
to
steer
clear
of
St.
Paul's
Hospital
Iloilo,
as
their
disregard
for
patient
welfare
is
unforgivable.
