Manila’s Revolutionary ‘Self-Service Surgery Kits’: A Cut Above the Rest?
Manila Hospitals Unleash Inner Surgeon in You with Self-Service Surgery Kits
Tired of those pesky wait times for a lifesaving appendectomy? Do you dream of cracking open your own ribcage and fiddling with your own internal organs? Well, fret no more, Manila residents! The city’s finest hospitals are proud to announce their latest innovation: Self-Service Surgery Kits!
That’s right, folks. For a low, low price (and a waiver releasing the hospital from any and all liability), you can now perform your own gallbladder removal or bypass surgery from the comfort of your very own hospital bed!
Imagine the convenience! No more scheduling hassles, no more weeks (or months) of waiting in agony. Just grab your handy-dandy kit, whip out the instruction manual (with helpful illustrations!), and get to snippin’!
Sure, there might be a few minor drawbacks. The tools may be a bit on the dull side (you gotta keep costs down, you know?), and the instruction manuals might be written in, say, Swedish. But hey, a little IKEA-style furniture assembly never hurt anyone, right?
And who needs a pesky, know-it-all doctor hovering over you anyway? You’re the master of your own destiny (and your own internal plumbing)!
Of course, some uptight medical professionals might try to rain on your parade with their fancy “risks and complications” talk. But don’t listen to them! They’re probably just jealous of your newfound surgical prowess.
So ditch the doctor, grab your kit, and embrace the future of medicine! Just remember – we’re not responsible for any severed arteries, misplaced organs, or accidental self-appendectomies.
DIY Surgeries: When Manila Decided Scalpels Aren’t Just for Surgeons Anymore
In an audacious leap into the future of healthcare, Manila’s hospitals have introduced a groundbreaking initiative guaranteed to slice through those pesky waiting times: Self-Service Surgery Kits. Yes, you read that right. Why wait for a surgeon when you can be your own?
DIY in OR: Manila’s Bold Move
The bustling streets of Manila, a city known for its innovative spirit, are buzzing with the news. From Quezon City to Makati, citizens are curious, skeptical, and, in some cases, ready to don surgical gloves. But what’s the real story behind this cutting-edge (pun intended) approach to medical care?
The IKEA of Surgery

Imagine walking into a hospital in Caloocan or Las Piñas and picking up a flat-pack surgery kit, complete with all the tools and a step-by-step manual. It’s like IKEA, but instead of assembling a bookshelf, you’re removing your appendix. The concept might sound absurd, but in this satirical scenario, Manila’s hospitals are all about empowering patients—scalpel in hand.
Operation: Real Life
Remember that buzzing board game, Operation, where precision is key? Well, in Mandaluyong and Marikina, it’s not just a game anymore. Patients are lining up to try their hand at self-service surgeries, turning a childhood game into a surreal reality.
From Waiting Rooms to Operating Rooms
In Muntinlupa and Navotas, waiting rooms are transforming. Gone are the days of flicking through outdated magazines. Now, potential patients can watch tutorial videos, practice on dummies, or even exchange tips and tricks with fellow self-surgeons.
#DIYSurgery Goes Viral

Social media is ablaze with the #DIYSurgery trend. Influencers in Parañaque and Pasay are live-streaming their own procedures, offering a whole new meaning to ‘going viral.’ But don’t grab your popcorn just yet—remember, this is all satirical.
Expert Opinions and Eyewitnesses
In Pasig and San Juan, medical professionals are raising eyebrows, emphasizing that surgery is not a DIY hobby. Meanwhile, patients-turned-surgeons share their ‘success’ stories, from minor procedures to the more, shall we say, adventurous undertakings.
The Competitive Spirit of Taguig
Not to be outdone, Taguig introduces surgery speed runs, where time is of the essence, and precision is, well, optional. It’s a bizarre race against the clock, adding a competitive edge to healthcare that nobody knew we needed.
Valenzuela’s Badge of Honor
In Valenzuela, patients who successfully navigate their self-service surgery receive a badge of honor. It’s a small, stitched emblem of bravery—or madness, depending on how you look at it.
A Poll of Public Opinion

A city-wide poll reveals mixed feelings. Some residents of Malabon see this as a revolutionary step towards healthcare autonomy, while others, understandably, prefer their surgeons to have a few more qualifications than a YouTube tutorial under their belts.
The Future of Healthcare?
As Manila’s hospitals boldly embrace this new initiative, one can’t help but wonder: Is this the future of healthcare, or a satirical glimpse into a world where efficiency trumps expertise? Only time will tell.
Disclaimer: Don’t Try This at Home (or Anywhere Else)
Before you rush off to perform your own appendectomy, let’s be clear: this is satire. Manila’s hospitals are not, in fact, handing out DIY surgery kits. Surgery is a complex and delicate task best left to the professionals—no matter how long the waiting times might be.
So, while we’ve had our fun imagining a world where self-service surgery is the norm, remember to leave the medical procedures to the experts. After all, some assembly required should never apply to your body.
