Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. (NCLH) has opened its dedicated medical clinic in the Philippines to serve its Filipino crew members.

Located on the 19th floor of the Trium Building along Buendia Avenue in Pasay City, the NCLH Medical Clinic and Laboratory OPC is a cutting-edge facility offering a full range of pre-employment medical services for seafarers set to join NCLH cruise ships.

“This marks a new chapter for NCLH. We dedicate this space to service and care,” said Dr. Carlos Gonzalez, Chief Medical Officer of the clinic, ahead of the facility’s official blessing by Fr. Boy Saavedra of the Apostleship of the Seas.

The 674-square-meter clinic features fully equipped departments including dental, ultrasound, X-ray, optical, clinical laboratory, ECG, treadmill stress testing, drug testing, audiometry, and psychological testing. Each department is staffed by certified medical professionals and outfitted with modern diagnostic technology aimed at ensuring efficient, accurate evaluations.

The new clinic underscores the company’s commitment to its Filipino workforce, many of whom are supplied by CF Sharp Crew Management, one of the world’s leading providers of Filipino seafarers.
Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings operates three major cruise brands—Norwegian Cruise Line, Oceania Cruises, and Regent Seven Seas Cruises—across a fleet of over 32 ships. The company has plans to introduce 11 new vessels in the near future.
