COURTESY: PIA 10
Yo, Barangay Apil crew—your life just got way easier! March 10 dropped the bomb: Oroquieta City’s brand-new Super Health Center is officially open. No more epic treks across town just for a check-up. Help is literally around the corner now.
Mayor Lemuel Meyrick Acosta is hyped. He calls it a game-changing move for health access. Think quick consultations, lab tests on the spot, prenatal care, kid vaccines, free meds for common sicknesses—all without the long commute. Prevention mode is also activated: regular screenings catch hypertension and diabetes early, plus solid health education so families stay ahead of trouble. “Safer community, stronger families, better lives,” he said. Facts.
This Place Is Next-Level Awesome
Forget basic RHU—this Super Health Center is a legit mini-polyclinic. Labs, X-ray, dialysis, full pharmacy, specialized services. It’s built to slash travel time and bring real healthcare to rural spots like Apil and nearby barangays.
Dr. Al Joseph J. Guantero, city health officer, summed it up perfectly: national gov, local leaders, and tireless healthcare workers teamed up to deliver more than a building—it’s care, prevention, and straight-up hope. DOH funds it, DPWH builds it, LGU gives the land. Classic collab win.
Oroquieta’s health game just went from good to. Apil residents, you’re eating good now!
