Villaflor On Demand: The first and only mobile ambulatory service in Metro Dagupan!


Dagupan Doctors Villaflor Memorial Hospital (DDVMH) has launched a new home laboratory extraction service -- the first in the Metro Dagupan area. The hospital's newest offering as Pangasinan eases through the new normal.


Patients are now able to have laboratory extraction services done in the comfort of their homes given the risk of infection from COVID-19 and by the limited mobility due to the community quarantine. Thanks to DDVMH's Villaflor On Demand’s lab extraction services!


Laboratory extraction services include blood extraction, urine analysis, and fecal analysis. All services will be facilitated by a phlebotomist or medical technologists for proper handling and quality results.


Why the need for Villafor On Demand? DDVMH’s new offering aims to ease the fears of Metro Dagupan residents, especially senior citizens (Seniors are among those most vulnerable to the disease because of their weakened immune system), over leaving their homes and eventually contracting COVID-19, even as the national government downgraded Pangasinan to a modified general community quarantine until June 30.


The elderly, chronically ill patients, patients recovering post-surgery, bedridden patients, and patients with special needs will be given priority but all patients can avail of the home lab extraction services.


Patients are advised to schedule their extraction requests two weeks before the day of the confirmed extraction date.


Aside from the home laboratory extraction service, Villaflor On Demand offers home delivery of medicines and online medical consultations.



To make an extraction request, patients may call 0917-714-8564, 0939-903-3320, or (075) 522-7629. They can also reach DDVMH through email ddmh.helpdesk@gmail.com and facebook at facebook.com/ddvmh.helpdesk.


As an expert in providing Metro Dagupan’s medical needs, DDVMH is reinventing the way medical centers provide care by offering more off-site services to provide continuing excellence in patient experience and care.



Dagupan Doctors Villaflor Memorial Hospital (DDVMH) is a Mount Grace partner.

Pangasinan comfort food: Dagupan Kaleskes

Image
Dagupan Kaleskes is a dish made out of cow or carabao meat and its internal organs in a hot, delicious, orange colored broth. The dish got its name from ' Kaleskes ' which is a Pangasinan word for intestines .  It is the annatto or achuete that gives the soup its distinct orange color and slightly nutty, earthy and delicately sweet flavor. But most of the yummy flavor comes from the beef and innards (some prefer to use carabeef as it is said to be more flavorful and cheaper than beef).  The meat is slow cooked in a big aluminum basin or casserole usually with charcoal in a brazier or kalan de uling/ ulingan (clay stove). This adds a different scent and flavor to the food. The coup de grace for a delectable Dagupan Kaleskes are the free sebo tan dala (fat and blood)! By the way, the broth is unlimited so you can ask for endless refill.   Kaleskes , a Pangasinan dish is similar to the Ilocano’s Sinanglao and Pinapaitan . It however does not have the

Bangus Harvest in Dagupan City

Image
Gilon gilon ed pukok (Bangus harvest in a fishpond in Dagupan City)  During bangus harvest, water in the fishpond is slowly and partially drained by opening the pond gate. This usually happens during low tide. Schools of milkfish are pushed to the harvest net through kalukor (seine fishing) where nets tied to bamboo poles are held by men from end to end as they slowly walk from the far end of the fishpond towards the harvest net. It is important that the schools of milkfish are slowly sent to the harvest net to weaken them in order to avoid injuring them otherwise we would get bloodied and limp bangus. The bangus in the harvest nest is then scooped with the use of a ringed net and transferred to a motorboat filled with crushed ice to ensure that the milkfish remains fresh as they are brought to the fish market.
