Hi,
I have talked to PRC but I kept on getting bounced around.
I work for a marketing services company where one of our activities is to conduct market research.
does the PRC have information about how many doctors are registered per city/region?

Hello FOI Team,
I apologize I just read your response. Thank you for getting back to me.
Would you know which government institution would have information about the number of doctors per location (region/city, barangay, etc) and their respective specialization e.g. Pediatriction, Anesthesiologist, Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, General Practitioner, Obstetrics-Gynecology?
For now though, the list of doctors per area will suffice. Hope you can help me with the details I need above.
Thank you.
Allen Miole
