National mWellness Day, mounted for the 2nd time since its inception in 2021, has achieved a milestone in its mission to bring quality healthcare to more Filipinos nationwide in the new normal by providing free online consultation to hundreds of patients from all over the country through the mWell PH app.

The two-day advocacy event was helmed by hundreds of family doctors and specialists from Metro Manila, Cagayan De Oro, Davao, and Zamboanga who donated their time to provide consultation via the mWell app, while mental health advocates from MindNation and Makati Medical Center Wellness Center gave on-call services for free mental health counseling.

Despite hectic schedules, doctors and mental health experts from all over the country willingly donated their time and expertise to provide free consultation via the mWell app.

Dr. Reymark Calma congratulated mWell for the event which allowed him to feel the true spirit of volunteerism while fellow volunteer, Dr. Mark Calban said, "It was such an inspiring experience serving the medical needs of patients not only from Metro Manila but from different provinces." Expressing her appreciation for the support she received, Dr. Mae Doctolero, said, "The responsive tech team and operations support made everything so easy."

A record number of patients, including celebrities, Metro Manila-based journalists, and regional influencers were able to consult for free. After the consultation, they also received free e-prescriptions, medical certificates, lab referrals, and vouchers.

Patients expressed gratitude for the free consultation. They found the doctors to be very kind and approachable. "The consultation flow is good and clear," said one of the patients while another writes, "This is the best teleconsultation I have experienced."

An mWell user who had a consultation with the dermatologist gave this feedback: "My doctor is amazing. She was on time and provided me with all the support."

A mom, whose daughter had a fever, was so thankful that they were able to consult a pediatrician for free. She said: "Laking tulong para sa mga nanay na tulad ko. Ang daling gamitin at ang bait ng duktor. Buti na lang may mWell app!"

mWell partners, including the country's top insurance companies – PhilCare and Generali gave their full support for the advocacy along with Makati Medical Center Foundation, MPIC Foundation, Unilab, MedExpress, 24 Alkaline-C, and PiCur antioxidant.
