Dr. Care is expanding its efforts to bring accessible healthcare services closer to Filipino communities while creating more opportunities for entrepreneurs through its partnership with Security Bank Corporation.
The partnership supports the “Franchise Now, Pay Later” Program, which provides qualified entrepreneurs with financing options to establish Dr. Care healthcare businesses.
Representing Dr. Care Medical Group Inc. is Dr. Mark D. Mendoza, President and Founder, while Bonbon Chua, Senior Assistant Vice President and Focus Segments Specialist of Security Bank Corporation, represents the bank in the partnership.
The initiative aims to address two areas at the same time—improving access to essential healthcare services and helping Filipino entrepreneurs overcome one of the common challenges in starting a business: access to capital.
Dr. Care Pharmacy Corporation said Filipino families rely on accessible and affordable medicines as part of their everyday healthcare needs. The company aims to bring essential medicines and pharmacy services closer to communities while also empowering entrepreneurs who want to establish businesses with a healthcare mission.
Under its partnership with Security Bank, Dr. Care Pharmacy offers the “Franchise Now, Pay Later” Program to qualified entrepreneurs, giving them an opportunity to pursue pharmacy entrepreneurship while serving the healthcare needs of their respective communities.
Meanwhile, Dr. Care Medical Group has been providing healthcare services to Filipino families for more than 15 years. From starting with a single clinic, the company has grown into a network of more than 150 privately owned DOH-standard Animal Bite Centers nationwide.
Its Animal Bite Centers provide services that include professional wound care, anti-rabies vaccination, post-exposure prophylaxis, anti-tetanus immunization, patient education and continuous follow-up.
The company said the expansion of its healthcare network is also intended to create opportunities for Filipino entrepreneurs who want to build businesses while providing essential services to their communities.
Through the “Franchise Now, Pay Later” Program, Dr. Care Medical Group, in partnership with Security Bank, offers financial loan options to qualified entrepreneurs.
According to Dr. Care, the partnership goes beyond financing. The company sees each new clinic as an opportunity to serve another community, provide healthcare access to more families and create a sustainable business opportunity for entrepreneurs.
For Dr. Care, entrepreneurship is closely connected to its goal of expanding healthcare access. By supporting entrepreneurs who share its commitment to community service, the company aims to establish more healthcare facilities in areas where families need accessible medical services.
The partnership between Dr. Care and Security Bank therefore combines healthcare expansion with financial opportunities for qualified entrepreneurs, with the goal of reaching more Filipino communities.
Dr. Care said its mission goes beyond operating healthcare facilities, emphasizing service, compassion and the opportunity to help more Filipino families gain access to quality healthcare.
