According to the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA), there were a total of 1,844,406 OFWs in 2015 – 1,437,875 land-based and 406,531 sea-based.
This is true especially for health care providers like Nurses, Physical Therapist, Dentist and Doctors who apply to work for different countries instead of Local Hospitals. However Abs-Cbn News reported that a 27 year old Doctor named Jeffrey Padul stated that he wants to help his fellow Filipinos in Italy.
The Doctor specializing in Physical and Rehabilitative Medicine stated that : ‘’I think the best way I can help Philippines, my home country is to do my best to help the Filipino communities here in Italy, I know that I can be very helpful for my community.’’
‘’I know a lot of Filipinos that are attending universities in Italy in Medicine , in Law, Economics, Math, Physics . As a Filipino Im very proud of them. We are the next generation of Filipinos.’’
‘’we are not the generation of domestic helpers, we raise a new flag of Philippines here in Italy,’’ he continued.
Padul was born in Messina, South Italy, where he also grew up. According to Abs-Cbn he is currently the only Filipino Doctor in North Italy.
He mentioned: ‘’My parents have been the major motivation of my studies because they showed me since I was little boy, you know life is difficult. They made a lot of sacrifices for me.’’
Italian Doctors also Lauded him for excellence .
‘’the first Filipino Doctor that we have specializing in rehabilitation who is also your ambassador. Ambassador of rehabilitation.’’ - Dr. Rocco Dario Guerini
