In order for us to work further on your request, may we inform you that PRC does not have a data for Oncology Team. We can only provide the number of registered professionals (Physicians/Nurses) as a whole or per region (examinees that passed the licensure examination). This does not include per specialization of Doctors or designation, even the employment status of the professionals, as this is beyond the jurisdiction of the Commission. If you are referring for Psychiatrist for Mental Health Professionals, it is also not available due to Psychiatrist is a specialization of Physician. What PRC has are Psychologists and PMET. For your clarification or you may respond to our email last October 16, 2023 for easier reference. During the period of us awaiting your reply, your request will be put on hold. If we do not receive a reply on or before Jan 12, 2024 02:00:43 AM, your request will be closed. We hope to hear from you at the soonest possible time. Thank you. Respectfully, Archives and Records Division FOI Officer
