Through its partnership with PLDT, the company hopes to improve the access to healthcare of critically-ill patients by enabling hospital sales representatives with the capacity to tap medical providers, as well as the pharmaceutical group’s network of health professionals and practitioners—even when working remotely.
“Since the start, we’ve always advocated for excellence in customer service and I personally want to thank PLDT for catering to our requirements. This strengthened partnership is reflection of our faith in PLDT being able to continue their provision of such excellent service,” said J de Ruyter “Toto” Oroceo, CEO and chairman of the Board of DPI of the collaboration with PLDT.

Our Chairman and CEO Manuel V. Pangilinan likes to say that we are in the business of nation-building and we see no better way of serving our people than by elevating one of the most crucial sectors of our nation—the healthcare sector,” he said.
