    RITM is accessible to Pleasant Village, Soldiers Hills Village, and Festival Mall due to its location. It is a small facility where parking areas are easily crowded for both employees and clients. They conduct COVID19 Swab Test only those purpose categorized in the website, where applicant requires the booking appointment or in case of walk-in, there is an information under the white tent where you will scan the QR Codes for 3-step procedure. The Indormation under the white tent is located outside the office, near the flagpole and parking lot. It is also a hospital under an Animal Bites Center.

    Doctors at derma clinic are excellent. Sometimes better than private doctors. I used to go to private derma for my acne problems. Now, I just go to Ritm derma. Consultation is P50 only per followup. This is a govt hospital so youd better be very patient about long lines and waiting so be prepared. They only accept patients until 9:00 am in the morning, so come early. Don't expect five star facilities and treatment as this is a public hospital. Facilities are adequate.

    Generally ok (staff, service, facilities), I see why people go here. You can set an appointment online but you can still go really early to be accommodated right away. Also, if you're late, it's hard to park around.

  • 4/5 Paul A. 1 year ago on Google β€’ 189 reviews
    A government facility with remarkably hardworking healthcare professionals. The Animal Bite Center gets crowded, so come early in the day for medical consultations and anti-rabies vaccinations. The only downside is the lack of regular public transportation to ferry commuting patients to and from the facility.

    Went and had the SWAB test. And the line long as we were walk in. But the staff were super accommodating and friendly. Though u we ended waiting for almost 10 hours the staff were all ready to help and very understanding. Kudos.

    not all staff are so friendly, tho the guards are. we're told not to take video while doing the injection. It's an old hospital. was able to see the ER, and areas around Cashier and Pharmacy (to buy medicine for the anti-rabies). Facilities around these areas are clean but you'll see marks of broken things in the hallways. you'll see marks of a really old building. cannot wait inside the ER for the 1hr observation period. waiting area is outside. cheap medicine compared to private. You'll pay at the cashier first then get the meds at the pharmacy then go back to the ER. we went here at around 10pm then finish at 1am. we're the only patient at The ER.

    Five days ago, my girlfriends son was brought to your facility to see if he had leptosperosis. What blows my mind is that in order to get the results, her son has to personally retrieve the results. Do you know the inconvenience you are bringing to the patient? Do you know he is still sick with fever? Why can't my girlfriend, his Mother, get the results over the phone? Oh, your email address on the website does not work.

    (Translated by Google) My first time in here is smooth. I was bitten by my pet cat and I got my vaccines and shots from here. That was almost a year ago. It spared me almost thousand pesos compared to private Animal Bite Centers. But after a year, my younger sister was scratched by a stray cat. When we get here, around 8am, we're told to come back tomorrow. They only counted up to 100 counts as they accommodate new patients for anti rabbies. So the next day, we came back and the next one was the crowd at the entrance. Otherwise, there are still more. It's just about 2am, they are ready to queue. That was 5 am but when I approach the guard, there is no number. We decided to go home instead and we did not have the money to inject. But the healthcare system is in the Philippines. Overload. Hopefully, with the new healthcare act, the services will improve and expand. We, Filipinos, do not deserve something like this. (Original) My first time in here is smooth. Nakagat ako ng alaga kong pusa and I got my vaccines and shots from here. That was almost a year ago. It spared me almost thousand of pesos compared sa private Animal Bite Centers. But after a year, my younger sister was scratched by a stray cat. When we get here, around 8am, we're told to come back tomorrow. Hanggang 100 lang daw kasi ang number ng i accommodate nila na new patients for anti rabbies. So kinabukasan, bumalik kami at ang bumungad samen ay yung napakaraming tao sa may entrance. Yung iba, may mga latag pa. 2am pa lang daw, andun na sila para pumila. That was 5 am pero nung i approach namin yung guard, wala na daw number. We decided to go home instead at wala kaming pera para magpa injection. Pero nakakaawa ang healthcare system dito sa Pilipinas. Sobra. Sana, with the new healthcare act, mas mapabuti at mapalawig ang services. We, Filipinos, do not deserve something like this.

    (Translated by Google) We will be working together and we will have a request form from our doctor in private. they had that in the laboratory which I called them several times. Then when we arrived we were told which pontio pilots were and should be at the center. you are suffering from a patient who is willing to pay for the laboratory. it rains so much that it seems to be holding all over the world you have become an establishment in infectious decease if you do not help your patients to have you in the lab. (Original) Magpapalaboratory kami at meron kaming request form galing sa doktor namin sa private. meron silang ganun sa laboratory which is ilang beses kong tinawag sa kanila. Then pag punta namin dun nirefer kami kung saang pontio pilato at dun daw dapat at center pa. bat nyo pinahihirapan yung patient na willing naman magbayad para sa laboratory. naguuulan pa kesyo yun daw ung naghahawak sa buong muntinlupa naging isang establishment pa kayo sa infectious decease kung di nyo naman matulungan pasyente nyo na meron naman kayo sa lab.

    Service oriented. This is a government owned facility. Treats rabies, dermatology and other services. You have to come in early, else you have you come back the next day. They have cut off times and limits on number of patients to accommodate.

    (Translated by Google) Kind staff. Doc says, xa sometimes brings food, changes the bed sheet. The nurse is also smart, always concerned. It took time to talk even though it was risky to stay long in the isolation room. Ward is also caring, and a replacement for the o2 tank. He taught us to turn on the TV so that we would be bored. The important thing is that the patient is healed. The nurse and the rest of the staff are also passionate about coaching the patient, reminding deep breathing and cheering up the patient. Stay healthy. God bless all the health workers and all frontliners around the world. We cannot bargain for your service. (Original) Mababait mga staff. Bait ni doc, xa minsan nagdadala ng food, nagpapalit ng bed sheet. Bait din ni nurse, laging concern. Nagtake time makipag usap kahit risky magstay ng matagal sa isolation room. Caring din si ward, at tagapalit ng o2 tank. Tinuruan nya kami i-on ang tv para hnd kami mainip.Ang importante daw gumaling ang pasyente. Passionate din si nurse and the rest of the staff para mag coach sa pasyente , magpaalala ng deep breathing at mag cheer up sa pasyente. Stay healthy. God bless all the health workers and all frontliners sa buong mundo. Hindi namin matatawaran ang serbisyo ninyo.

    (Translated by Google) I came here earlier to test covid. but I don't want to test anymore because the pasig doesn't seem to be covered by alabang e I worked in las pinas. but I will pay. I was taught the philippine genome there, I was supposed to take the test, but that was the philippine genome that did not perform the swab. why did the nurse I talked to say that before? refusing the patient. kala mo naman may ari ng facility. they just want to survive. I hope you do not give false information to people if you do not want to test there. Then you own the facility. you are just misleading people. If I were from the Visayas, I would still go home to the Visayas. Why are people so smart here? Studied for five years or more but let the virus spread. RITM brain (Original) pumunta po ako dito kanina para magpa test ng covid. pero ayaw naman po na i test kasi di daw sakop ng alabang yung pasig e nasa las pinas naman ako nag wwork. pero magbabayad naman ako. tinuro ako sa philippine genom dun daw ako magpa test pero yun pala yung philippine genom di naman nag peperform ng swab. bakit ganun ang sinabi ng nurse na nakausap ko kanina? tumatanggi sa pasyente. kala mo naman may ari ng facility. sila lang gusto mag survive. sana wag naman mag bigay ng maling impormasyon sa tao kung ayaw itest doon. Saka dimo naman pagmamay ari yang facility. nililigaw nyo lang ang tao. Kung taga visayas pala ako uuwi pa ako ng visayas. Bakit ang talino ng mga tao dito? Nag aral ng limang taon or mahigit pa pero hahayaan na mag spread ang virus. Utak RITM

    (Translated by Google) First 100 for everyone who goes .. The system is still a bit messy, I was most annoyed by my grandfather I will treat him the guard even took my number now I was in the queue I saw my grandfather was hot so I approached the guard again .. I said do you have no priority for the senior .. The guard said why did I say my brother earlier I showed my grandfather the cat bite why did you give me an ordinary number. Then he changed my number. My grandfather is 81 and yes we went there because I know we can be cheap but I have the right to complain because my grandfather is poor. I just wish they were in a really bad line and if you are going make sure you are especially early and you are a senior citizen. You also bring your own bag of food and drink because their canteen did not open early and the goods are quite expensive. (Original) First 100 para sa lahat ng mag pupunta.. Medyo magulo pa din ang system, pinaka kinaasaran ko lolo ko ang ipapagamot ko binawi pa ng guard ang number ko nun nasa pila na ako nakita ko lolo ko naiinitan kaya lumapit uli ako sa guard.. Sabi ko wala ba kayo priority para sa senior.. Sabi ng guard bakit po sabi ko kuya kanina ko pa po pinakita lolo ko ang nakagat ng pusa bakit po binigyan nyo ako ng ordinary number. Saka lang nya ako pinaltan ng numero. 81 na lolo ko at oo nag punta kami doon gawa ng alam ko makakamura po kami pero may karapatan naman po ako mag reklamo dahil kawawa naman lolo ko. Yun lang sana sa pila sila di maayos talaga at kung pupunta kayo siguraduhin nyo maaga kayo lalo at fi kayo senior citizen. Dala na din pala kayo ng baon nyo pagkain at inumin kasi di maaga nag oopen ang canteen nila at medyo mahal ang tinda.

    Very disappointed and very unhappy for the system they implemented I went there yesterday to ask and have a swab test since I have a symptoms or Covid suspect the personnel I spoke advise me to come tomorrow before the cut off time. I came as early 5 am today the personnel advise me that they are not accepting walk in need to do online appointment which I ask it yesterday if I need to do it. The personnel I spoke yesterday advise no need to do it just came back before TH cut off time. So disappointed I comply for the protocols but this government has no concerned for us they want to be good in the eyes of the people of the Philippine but in reality there is no action
