As such, it can be called upon by the FDA to conduct reviews on its behalf, as well as review new drugs or device protocols where results will be submitted in support of registration for marketing authorization.
MakatiMed's decades of medical innovation and compassionate care to its patients, their families, and community is enhanced by pioneering significant clinical research initiatives, commitment to continuous modern medical advancement, and training new generations of healthcare providers who can proudly continue its tradition of excellent healthcare service.
