Only in the Philippines, Senator acting as regional trial Court tapos under graduate pa!

Ang galing ni Sen Estrada magtanong, prang walang naging kasong graft and corruption...

What is the purpose of the probe? The Philippine government must come up with standardized salaries for the medical professionals in the country competitive with the international standards. The salary of government doctors in the Philippines are below par compared to other countries. High school graduates are now earning higher than these pathetic physicians. If these physicians only knew that high school graduates are now actually earning millions a year, they will give up the miserable life they are in by quitting being a doctor. Being a physician in the Philippines is not worth the sacrifice. More high school graduates are now silent millionaires in the Philippines far more than those miserable doctors.

Sana po, MGA DEAR SENATORS, Legislations must be implemented well and reinforced properly. SANA RIN PO, PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH. Hindi papogi lang kasi malapit na ang 2025 Midterm Election.

So therefore we conclude doctors have no right to have comfotable life,own business ,have a branded car...But the policians are entitled to all the pleasures and richness in thevworld...how Tupperware 😏

D na nagsawa sa puro hearing, ala naman nakakasuhan, puro pamamahiya lang. Malayong malayo na ang Senado at Kamara sa ngayon at noon. Pagtuonan sana ang sobrang mahal na bilihin, yun lang at happy na kami.

Si leachun parang napaka santo naman nito,,, so kapag doctor di pede mag negosyo,ako kung may resita naman ng doctor pagdating sa pharmacy di naman yun talaga ang binibili ko tinatanong kung may generic bahh or may ibang brand na mas mura,depende naman yan sa pasyente

Unilab is waving..

Aggressive ang mga senators sa ganitong kaso pero tiklop sa mga kalokohan ni Quiboloy..😂

Hisa hisa lang tanan. Grandstanding mga senador

Dr. Leachon your honesty is an eye opener of the kind of health system going on in our country.What a misery to every filipino .... senators you are doing your job well.

Mga Sir if you will ask for a revocation to all the license of our cardiologist that has involvement to that scheme do you think it will not affect the health system of this country? come to think of it.. pwedi nyu silang e reprimand pero hindi makakatulong ang pag alis ng lisensya ng mga doctor.. ilang taon nilang inaral yan ilang patiente ang tatangalan ninyo ng magagaling na doctor? khit may kasalanan sila hindi MAL practice at negligence ang nagawa nila sa pagiging doctor nila..

if ever po na totoo na may anumalya ang mga doctor.dapat po lahat ng company imbistigahan.hindi po dapat bell-kenz lang.naiinggit lang po iba kc murang mura po at pang masa ang BK.kaya po lahat ng pasyente BK ang binibili.

When non medical people judge medical people why they prescribed medications for 100+ pieces. 😂

paubus na nga mga nurses babawasan niyo pa mga doctor... naku naku naku anu ba yan.. bakit hindi yung mga bilihin at kuryente ang ayusin ninyo? kapag bumaba lahat ng yan malaking ginhawa sa mga tao yon.. hindi sila ma stress, depress na nakaka dagdag sa pag kakasakit ng mga tao.. sa taas ng kuryente hindi na nila ma afford bumili ng mga gamot nila kaya lumalala minsan mga sakit nila.. inuuna ang mga pagkaen, kuryente kesa sa sakit nila.. kaya pag punta sa mga doctor medyo grabi na.. ayun kailangan nilang bumili ng maraming gamot..

Sana po mas pagtuunan ng pansin ng senado ang corruption sa lotto,philhealth, dep ed etc. Very helpful and effective po mga gamot ng bell kenz.

Dr. Go is a very respectable and very good Doctor.

May pangarap si lechon. Letche

Sa government hospitals bawal talaga. Pero in private clinics, hindi ito maiiwasan. Lalo na kung iisa lang ang brand ng gamot at subok naman talagang effective ang gamot na ito based sa evidence-based studies. Para sa pasyente din naman ang pineprescribe namin. Hindi naman kami demonyo at makasarili.

May na inngit sa bell kenz pharma..😂😂😂

In the Philippines, senators are uniquely scrutinizing doctors' capacity to provide medical care. This includes instances where a senator questioned the metformin prescription by a doctor who isn't an endocrinologist. For your information, even a general practitioner can prescribe medications even if they are not specialized. This is also why the Philippines will never be ready for the Universal Health Law, we are more specialised focus. In fact, even the lawmakers do not understand its importance

real doctors can't do that, it's an act of syndicate which the practice of all good doctors could be in jeopardy, there might be a actor inside the health department.

Sana nman Ang mga senator I respect din ung time ng resource person nila. Hindi pa tapos opening speech kinut na nila agad. Not because you are a senator means that you are the only one who have the right to talk. Also again may I remind the Senate that your mandate is to legislate laws. You are not the judiciary to decide who is guilty or not guilty. You are overstepping your mandate. Please review our constitution specially the part about separation of powers.

Mr Chairman please don't allow one Senator to monopolise the hearing. Grandstanding na naman.. Why due process daw is too long. Gusto kasi cut the process. My God heto na naman tayo. Sabi nya pa singit lng but look what happen tuloy na sya. Buti na lng pinutol na rin ni Sen. Go.

Hahaha, basta doctor wag na pumasok ng negosyo, lahat conflict of interest, haaaay nako, descrimination on a new level huh

panahon pa ni mahoma yang mga 5+1 na yan, it's given to businesses, pero pag doctor hindi pde?, lam ba ng mga ito dun sa philhealth kung magkano required sa mga doctors na bayaran to get their renewal ng philhealth accreditation?, 🥺

Sen Go, with our ever gratefull ❤️❤️ we are extremely proud of the Malasakit Center which you Authored... you really have a generous benevolent for the lost the least and the little😇🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽👍👍 May i know po if this center is available AlL over the Philippines, specifically in Ligao city Albay.? My sincerest thanks for your most favorable response🙏🏽🙏🏽🤗🤗👍

Wala pa silang napatunayan sa korte pero sinira na nila ang repotasyon ng companya. In aide of legislation pero nahusgahan nah.

Dapat ung may kaso ng graft hind na nakakatakbo khit Iboto pa sila. Kaya parang wlang credibility if sila Ang nag tanung

Bakit si Lechon pinapayagan magsalita ng mahaba ng minsan hindi naman tinatanong? Tapos pag si Dr. Go, need to answer yes or no lang? Unfair naman.

Essentially, it is NOT unethical to prescribe using the drug’s brand name especially if it is still under patent. Generic prescribing is for transparency , patient empowerment and cost effectiveness. The issue in this hearing is the unethical business practices of pharmaceutical companies involving inducement and bribery, the unethical conduct of medical representatives and collusion of doctor- prescribers . Misconduct of this nature covers both manufacturers of me-too drugs and multinational pharmaceuticals

Sana mag pasa ng batas na bubuwisan ang mga vloggers. Tingnan natin kung hindi mag lulupasay yang si raf raf.😊

Branded mas maganda. Basic yan. Quality ang gusto. Kesa sa mura gawgaw ang laman

Pakitawag din sa ibang pharma companies para patas

Sen. Go GOD Bless po sa kabutihan d nsayang boto ko..

Senator, gumagamit po ba kayo ng generics na isinusulong ninyo? O yung branded ginagamit?

I can tell the difference when Hontiveros and Gatchalian ang nag tanong sa senate hearing than the other senators.Yong ibang senators very intimidating, matapang, speaks and sounds unprofessional and not diplomatic. Is this an acceptable behavior to be in a senate hearing?

I salute all the policemen who caught the tons of shabu at Batangas . Job well done. I salute you Sir.

Calling the senators. I hope this hearing resolves the issues on hand

I admire the people of Alitagtag Batangas

Mga senador polpol, mag aral muna kayo ng medisina at mag residency training para mabigyan din kayo ng rebates, travel , relo, kotse at iba pa😅

I see no problem if a Doctor owned a Pharmacy business. This is totally similar for a Civil Engineer having a Construction business, a Mechanical Engineer having a Metal Fab company or a simple Motorcycle mechanic having a Motor parts business. If a Doctor prescribed a certain meds, whether or not the patient will buy that meds to the Doctor owned pharmacy, at the end of the day, the patient still need to buy that meds. Bottomline, the prescribe meds will address the complaint of the patient. It is the patient decision where to buy that prescribed meds anyway.

kaya dapat ung may alam sa batas nagiging senador hindi dapat pwede walang pinagaralan.

😊

May i know po if the Josefina Duran Emergency Hospital in Ligao City Tuburan Albay is covered by Malasakit Center? Maraming maraming salamat po🙏🏽🙏🏽🤗🤗 God bless you more Sen Go... praying for your good Health always...

Pharmacies should also be investigated...they are replacing doctors preferred brands with their own preferences or with only those available at their store. Stricter quality control of pharma conpanies should also be implemented...a lot of generics are coming out with questionable efficacy and bioequivalence

No law no charge to file in court.

Not a doctor. Napansin ko po na madami po HATE COMMENTS/CHAT dito sa mga doctor sa Pilipinas . Mga kabayan sana wag naman natin -generalize na ang karamihan ng doktor ay pera2 lang ang habol o walang malasakit. Oo sabihin na natin na may mga tao na nagdoktor para lang kumita pero sana wag naman po natin lahatin. Breakdown po ng proseso para maging doktor: Pre-medical course: 4 years Medicine proper: 5 years After graduation at pagpasa ng Board exam pwede na sila mag-work as General Practitioner. Pwede din mag RESIDENCY training ulit para maging SPECIALIST: May sweldo po ang training pero depende kung nasa government ka(mas malaki sweldo pero sobrang pagod) or private(sakto or mas maliist ang sweldo pero hindi ganun kadami pasyente o napapagod). Pagkatapos po ng lahat ng ito ay wala pa rin po kasiguraduhan na magiging successful po sila. Marami po nagsasabi na ang paraan lamang para lumago o yumama dito sa Pilipinas ay maging businessman ka or politician. Sa tingin ko po ay may bahid din po ito ng katotohanan. Hindi po lahat ng doktor mayaman. Hindi po lahat ng doktor may malago na practice. Tao din po sila katulad ninyo may mga pangangailangan. Ako din po ay AGAINST sa CHANNELING na pagreseta ng doktor sa preferred BRAND name. As long as may generic name po ang reseta ay may choice po ang pasyente na bumili kahit saan at kahit anong brand name ng generic name na iyon. Kung hindi niyo po alam ang pagkakaiba ng GENERIC at BRAND NAME paki-google na lang. Mabagal ang pila sa gobyerno? Hindi kayo narorounds ng doktor ninyo sa wards? Malamang po ay Understaffed at overworked ang mga hospital/infirmary staffs. Hindi lang po sa doktor ang hinain ko pati narin po sa mga nars natin. Ang dapat po natin sisihin ay ang sistema ng gobyerno natin Tulad din na nabanggit nila Dr. Tony Leachon, dumadami na din po ang mga doktor natin sa Pilipinas na nag-aabroad or nagplaplano pa lang dahil sa pangit na sistema ng healthcare natin sa bansa. Para sa mga pasyente: Ongoing na po ang pagplaplano at hindi kalaunan ay pagpapatupad ng Universal Health Care natin para hindi lamang po mga na-admit ang nacocover ng PhilHealth, pati narin po ang mga Outpatient na consultation.

Napaka shallow naman nitong si Grandstander. 🤦‍♂️

So now Doctors cannot own pharmacies? They don’t have the right to own businesses now? Madaming Doctors ang nagmamay-ari ng botika.

This government must file cases if with concrete evidences to any individual if criminal acts are alleged.

So papano kung pharmacist- physician ang natapos ko hindi ako pwede magtayo ng FDA licensed botika dahil may conflict of interest ganun ba? Harsh naman..

Dr. LEACHON NOON PA GUSTONG MAGING HEALTH SECRETARY KAYA PANAY APPEAR SA MEDIA.

Pagnagkaroon ng private session absuelto lahat abogado,doctor,nurse,Lto,bir,lahat ng sangay ng gobyerno puro kurakot dito na lang kami forever sa abroad na mga ofw

Ang corrupt investigates. Credible ba?

nangyayari nmn tlga yan in real life naalala ko wayback 2021 sa philippine orthopedic center sa banawe nabalian ng buto ang mother ko, nagrefer ung doctor ng bibilhan ng bakal may nakta kami mas mura ng 5k , pinaalam namin sa doctor ayaw pumayag dun lang daw sa nirefer nila kasi daw ganito ganyan ang dami sinasabi

Check can be for anything under the sun

It was a legislative grandstanding in arrogance and idiocy. It was exceedingly pathetic to watch! The issue was an ethical concern. Bar none, it was a blatant transgression on the Hippocratic Oath, "Primum Non Nocere," otherwise known as "First Do No Harm" and translated literally as "I will abstain from all intentional wrongdoing and harm." A physician who holds interests in a pharmaceutical company and prescribes its product line constitute not only a violation in Medical Ethics, but flagrantly, a major conflict of interest. As regards to the physician owning a pharmacy, an infraction on medical ethics and/or a conflict of interest has not been committed, if the establishment does not reside in the same territory covered by the medical practice, out of patient's reach, and no advisement from the said doctor for the prescription to be filled therein.

I was in the pharmaceutical industry before. I left that industry because you are forced to be corrupt. Cash incentives were and is common. Maduming trabaho yan

Dr. Leachon increased the mistrust of the general public to health professionals, for me parang pinagmukhang niyang masama ang mga doctors only talking about the negative without even emphasizing that this is only a case to case basis by explaining more. Kaya ung mga statements niya, kesa makatulong sa doctor, lalo pang nagagatungan ung mga maling sinasabi nga mga lawmakers.

wala kang alam tulfo feeling know it all! pang kanto lng

When pwede imbestigahan, kasuhan at idetain si idle tulfo para sa paglabag sa ethics, dishonesty, conflict of interest, etc?

Mtgal na Ang ugnayan Ng doctor at pharmaceutical companies, cguro bka ngaun lang masilip Yan,,

So sorry sa mga evil doctors. Umpisa pa lang 'yan. Dr Leachun is right!

simple disclosure does not remedy conflict of interest… alam m n may conflict of interest ka.. gagawin mo pa.

When you go to a different doctor, he has every right to prescribe whatever brand he wants. Now, it is up to you, as a patient to decide if you want that brand too.

Pharma strategy to get their products prescribed instead of (lapsed patent) cheaper generics

MRI, CTSCAN, Diagnostic labs give commissions for tests conducted. HiPrecision Labs gives checks to referring MDs. P1000- 1500 per MRI, CT SCAN done. Investigate well

Nakupo!,senador na kau magpa. Check up. Si le hon ba hindi nakatikim ng sponsorship ng pharma.? May pumondo dito. Yunv malaki ang sales losses.

Pacheck nyo po Drs involved sa USANA MLM

Doctor kaba jingoy

Hay naku. Lahat naman ng drs. Nagpapa sponsor talaga sa mga pharmaceutical company. Hwag kayong magmalinis. Inggit na lang yan kse nag prosper ang ibang drug firm.

grb, prng construction worker o katulong sa way of approaching nila smga doctor.. grb felling wlng mga record sa corruption..

may EMR na kami.... typewritten na ang prescription

mas mura po ang gamot ng Bell kenz kung pra sa ibang leading brand..

Senate should invest on buying extra cameras. Maybe Bellkenz can help them out.😂

Senator go nagiimbistiga kayo bakit napunta dyan

Naku naman. Fellow pa lanfbo residente ang dr. E nagpapasponsor ba!

Sen Pia Cayetano’ said this hearing doesn’t follow d rules of Senate ‘ the investigation inserted a pharmaceutical ‘ wc not in d rules! Amo ba gusto nyo mag Alisan mga Doctor sa Pilipinas’ para sarile nyong katanyagan !

😅

unahin muna ang problima sa china ngayon nag water cannon na

Kht ilagay ng doc. Kung anong brand ang bilhin nya nasa pasyente or bumibili prin kung aling branch ang gusto nya kasi sasabihin nman talaga ng pharmacy ung ibang brand na mas mura eh .

Ang hirap panoorin lalo na nung nagsalita na si Estrada. Ang lilinis ng kunsensya.

haist kawawa ang mga maliliit na company sa mga malalaking company dahil sa pa travel at sa tulad nito dina nakaka benta ang mga small company.

Minsan ang mga hospitals doble kita..naniningil sa mahihirap na patient then sisingil pa sa pondo na intended sa mahihirap sa MAIP

drug price in the philppines are too high. if you check taiwan and other countries their medicines are cheapest even branded. in the philippines our hospitals , clinics are worst , medicine will cost is to high, tpos sinabayan pa ng doctor na kakunchaba ung mga medicines supplies na branded, and sympre pag magaling na doctor kinukuha yan ng mga malaalaking medical companies, ending ung lang ung nbebenta

Naku e halos lahat lahat ng diagnostic laboratory e drs. Ang me ari. Bakit i single out si dr. GO! Tapos maganda nanan ang serbisyo ng Premiere kaya umasenso!

ANG STYLE NOW A DAYS NUNG MGA RESOURCE PERSON EEH MABUTI NANG HINDI KANA UMAMIN...AT MALINIS KA SA MATA NG TAO...KESA UMAMIN KA SA MADLA....UMAMIN KANA NA... MASAMA KA PA SA MGA TAO.... KAYA DI NALANG SILA UMAAMIN....AT DAPAT IPAKULONG....ANG NANGYAYARI AY....PINALILIPAS LANG ANG PANAHON... AT ANG RESULTA CASE CLOSE NA RAW... 😵🥺🤔😵‍💫👹😨👁️👁️👀👀😨😱😱

as a former patient, Medical practice in the Philippines is problematic and horrendous ly expensive. As a medical practitioner myself abroad I do question some of the procedures or medications Philippine doctors order..Such as Antibiotics without follow up cultures? an MRI for meningitis when a simple spinal tap would have confirmed the diagnosis..Some doctors write in codes only their suki pharmacy can decipher and a whole lot more

Apples from oranges???

Paharapin din lahat ng pharma na may mga trips na nagkukunwari na may scientific ek ek

medical malpractice

Yes Senator raffy tulfo ang mga doctor lagi may resita na gamot ipabilo SA labas KC wla SA kanila, bakit d cla mag Pondo Ng mga gamot na needed Ng pasyenti, paslusot Yang mga doctor din kasabwat at may pursyento! Lalo na Yong mga matatanda na cover dapat SA philhealth pinapabili nla SA labas

Bakit po dami sinabi ni Atty? Db witness lang naman sya for receiving prescriptions?

NO TO WHO PANDEMIC TREATY 👎👎👎

Oh come on mga senator, ever heard of "corraptor"??? If you guys dont know that,ask someone from cityhall involved in procurement/bidding🙂 generic sometimes are not really effective and questionable ang source (ask bambang pips). If its effective, and the main goal is still to cure the patient then why find it unethical to favor 1 brand? And why zero in in the medical profession? And the supposedly whistleblower wala b tlga any agenda? Or bka naman tatakbo na naman? Choosing to be famous rather than going to necessary offices.

Ikaw Tulfo numero uno may conflict of interest sa RTIA and your being senator.

Kaya naman pala ganun, Low Abiding pala kasi, taas taasan nyo cguro

para silang mga hudyo,! ika nga ay tingnan muna ang dumi sa sariling mukha bago mo tingnan ang dumi sa mukha ng iba.

kung mkapagsalita kau para kaung mga santo dming problema dpat pagtuunan kung cno nkktulong un pa inuuusig nyu Sayang ang boto nmin..
