Dean Dr. Erwin Rommel Hontivero and the team of experienced Professors at the Davao medical college deserve our praise and thanks for safeguarding our students and extending a helping hand whenever there was a need. It is really God's grace that our students get such a team of teachers to learn medicine and surgery.
Last but not the least I must also thank my team of office staff who always shared my burden to render help to the students and parents irrespective of time and schedule.
At this juncture, let me assure the parents and the students that Limra Overseas Education dedicates itself to the cause of Overseas Medical Education year after year.

Student Testimonials
Some of our Student’s Success Stories
The enormous amount that the self-financing medical colleges in Tamilnadu and Pondicherry demanded for admission to MBBS course shattered my dreams of making a doctor. We immediately went to Chennai and met Mr. Mohammed Ghani sir. He got admission to me, guided to have all the documents to get Visa, Bank Loan, and the qualifying certificate from NMC. He assured us a safe hostel exclusively for girls which was far better than what he described. I thank Limra for making great success over my ambition.
A large number of students from India, updated syllabus with recently evolved medical subjects, latest learning digital tools, libraries with International journals on medicine, multispecialty hospitals for clinical practice are some of the features that I enjoyed and experienced at DMSF After finishing my course in DMSF, I went and joined in LIMRA for clearing the FMGE exam and i got through in my first attempt, scoring above 200 the faculities and staff of LIMRA motivated me. I thank them and thanks to Mr.Ghani Sir.
Limra Overseas Education is mainly responsible for materializing the goal of my parents in making me a doctor. I am grateful to Limra. Even after the completion of the course at Davao Medical School Foundation, Philippines, Limra continues to have concern over its students and render all possible help. Limra could have left us after admitting us at Philippines. But it took continuous care on our career. I will never forget the help of Limra in this.
