Brief Summary by Juris Umali-Soliman, First Gentleman Foundation Inc.
  • Support to DOH Barrio Doctors.

The First Gentleman, knowing the need of Barrio Doctors, has supported the Department of Health’s Doctors to the Barrios by providing incentives, twice a year, to our government doctors serving in the underserved communities of the country since 2006.

The First Gentleman Foundation provides incentives like a fellowship training package in any Asian country including roundtrip ticket and allowance of Php100,000. The Foundation also provides financial incentives for the other top 7 doctors and leather medical bags with complete medical equipment for all participants costing about Php500,000 per recognition day (May and October each year).
