Healthway opens biggest multi-specialty clinic

MANILA, Philippines — AC Health’s Healthway Medical Network (HMN) has opened its flagship multi-specialty center in Makati, with two more clinics in its pipeline this year.

Healthway One Ayala is HMN’s 18th multi-specialty center and its one of its largest outpatient facilities, with approximately 1,300 square meters of floor space.

The facility features 14 consultation rooms, an ambulatory surgery center for outpatient procedures, an endoscopy unit, a 12-chair dialysis center and a specialized women’s center with mammography.

“This flagship clinic reflects our commitment to better care and patient experience. By establishing comprehensive multi-specialty centers in key transit hubs, we ensure that patients do not have to compromise between their busy schedules and their health,” AC Health chief health officer Beverly Ho said.

Healthway Multi-Specialty Centers CEO Edwin Magsino said the company has invested between P60 million and P70 million for the flagship multi-specialty center.

Healthway One Ayala has more than 100 on-site physicians, providing patients with direct access to an extensive medical team backed by the full strength of AC Health’s network, which boasts 2,800 physicians nationwide.

It also provides patients with referral pathways to specialized services, including the Healthway Cancer Care Hospital in Arca South.

Magsino said two more multi-specialty clinics are targeted to be opened by the company this year, one in Batangas and the other in Bonifacio Global City.

“We are actively scaling our footprint to bring high-quality primary and specialized care closer to more communities, driven by our goal to reach 20 multi-specialty clinics by 2027,” he said.

Healthway One Ayala also features a strategic co-location with another AC Health brand, St. Joseph Drug powered by SUGI, which includes a dedicated lane exclusively for Healthway patients to easily claim and fulfill their prescriptions.

“The pharmacy is often where a patient’s journey continues after the consultation. Through St. Joseph Drug powered by SUGI, we’re combining St. Joseph Drug’s trusted customer care, SUGI’s pharmacy and retail expertise, and AC Health’s integrated healthcare ecosystem to create a more seamless, convenient and patient-centered experience,” St. Joseph Drug COO Luis Yanga said.

Founded in 1998, Healthway has come a long way from being just a clinic to becoming a comprehensive nationwide health care leader.

AC Health, the Ayala Group’s health care arm, transformed Healthway into an expansive network of seven hospitals, 18 multi-specialty centers and over 350 corporate clinics.
