Medical: Health Care
Spanish term or phrase: los pacientes podrán hacer su ingreso
A esto se suma una recepción amplia y una secretaría, donde los pacientes podrán hacer su ingreso. Además, como se encuentra en el mismo nivel de las consultas de Oncología, la persona podrá ver al especialista y luego pasar directamente a esta unidad y pedir una hora para un procedimiento o coordinar su tratamiento, lo que agiliza considerablemente el servicio.
