Our History

A Continuing Commitment to Healthcare in Pasig CityFor years, TriCity Medical Center, Inc. has served patients and families in Pasig City and neighboring communities, providing hospital-based medical care from its home at 269 C. Raymundo Avenue, Barangay Maybunga, Pasig City.

Situated along one of Pasig’s important thoroughfares, TriCity Medical Center has developed into a multidisciplinary healthcare institution serving the medical needs of individuals and families from Pasig and surrounding areas of Metro Manila and Rizal.The hospital’s story is one of continued development—expanding its healthcare capabilities, strengthening its medical community, and adapting its services to the changing needs of the population it serves.

Building a Healthcare Institution in PasigTriCity Medical Center was established with the goal of making comprehensive hospital and medical services more accessible to the community.Over the years, the institution developed a network of physicians, nurses, allied health professionals, administrative personnel, and support staff representing numerous areas of medicine.

Its location in Maybunga placed the hospital within reach of communities throughout Pasig, including Rosario, Manggahan, Santolan, Pinagbuhatan, Caniogan and nearby areas, while also making it accessible to patients coming from parts of Marikina, Pateros, Taguig, Quezon City, and Rizal.As Pasig grew from a largely residential and industrial community into one of Metro Manila’s major urban centers, the healthcare requirements of its population evolved as well.

TriCity Medical Center continued to develop alongside the community it served.Expanding Medical ServicesThe growth of TriCity Medical Center brought together physicians practicing across a wide range of specialties.Historical and contemporary healthcare-provider directories document physicians affiliated with TriCity in specialties including internal medicine, cardiology, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, general surgery, laparoscopic surgery, sonology and ultrasound, among others.As the hospital’s medical community developed, TriCity increasingly became more than a facility for hospitalization.

Newborn screening is an important component of Philippine preventive healthcare, allowing certain congenital and metabolic conditions to be identified early so appropriate medical intervention can begin as soon as possible.TriCity’s participation reflects the hospital’s continuing involvement in the healthcare journey of families—from pregnancy and childbirth to the early stages of a child’s life.Strengthening Its Role as a Full-Service HospitalHistorical hospital-industry records identify TriCity Medical Center, Inc. as a 100-bed institution at its C. Raymundo Avenue location.

Earlier industry records described the institution under the hospital classifications applicable at the time and identified medical and administrative leadership associated with the hospital, including Dr. Evelyn T. Santos as President, Dr. Anabelle M. Guilot as Medical Director, and Dr. Enrico C. Cruz as Administrator.These historical records provide a glimpse into the institution’s development as an established private hospital serving Pasig City.As Philippine hospital classifications and regulatory standards evolved, TriCity likewise continued operating within the country’s healthcare accreditation framework.Developing Specialized Healthcare Capabilities TriCity’s development also included specialized medical services.

Serving Patients Through an Expanding Medical Community Throughout its development, one of TriCity Medical Center’s most important resources has been its community of healthcare professionals.Doctors affiliated with the institution have represented multiple disciplines, allowing patients to receive care for a broad spectrum of medical concerns.Healthcare-provider directories over the years have listed TriCity Medical Center among accredited hospitals in Metro Manila, helping make its services accessible to patients covered by participating healthcare plans and medical insurance providers.The continuing presence of specialists and sub-specialists has also enabled the hospital to respond to increasingly complex healthcare requirements while maintaining the accessibility of a community-based medical institution.

Contributing to the Wider Medical Community TriCity Medical Center’s role has extended beyond routine clinical practice.Physicians affiliated with the institution have participated in professional medical organizations, specialist societies, continuing medical education and research.In 2023, for example, TriCity Medical Center in Pasig City appeared as an institutional affiliation in an international peer-reviewed research publication involving the Asia Pacific League of Associations for Rheumatology (APLAR) Gout Registry.

The multinational registry was established to improve understanding of gout and its management across the Asia-Pacific region.Participation of physicians associated with TriCity in the broader scientific and professional medical community reflects an important dimension of modern healthcare: combining everyday clinical practice with continuing education, research and evidence-based medicine.

A 100-Bed Level 2 Hospital Today, TriCity Medical Center continues to operate from its established location at 269 C. Raymundo Avenue, Maybunga, Pasig City.PhilHealth’s official list of accredited hospitals identifies TriCity Medical Center, Inc. as a private Level 2 hospital with an authorized bed capacity of 100 beds.Level 2 hospital classification represents a significant scope of clinical capability within the Philippine healthcare system and requires facilities, medical personnel and services beyond those provided by primary Level 1 hospitals.The hospital therefore continues to play an important role between community-level healthcare and highly specialized tertiary referral institutions.

Continuing to Evolve Healthcare has changed considerably through the years.Advances in diagnostic technology, medical treatment, infection prevention, information systems, patient safety and healthcare regulation have transformed the way hospitals operate.Patient expectations have evolved as well. Today’s patients expect not only competent medical treatment, but also accessible information, coordinated care, safety, efficiency, compassion and respect.

TriCity Medical Center continues to respond to these changes by strengthening its people, systems, facilities and healthcare services.Continuous professional training remains an important part of this effort. Training in areas such as Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) helps healthcare personnel maintain the knowledge and practical skills necessary to respond effectively during medical emergencies.More

Than a HospitalA hospital’s history is ultimately measured not only by buildings, equipment or the number of beds it operates.It is measured by the people it has cared for.It can be found in the families who have welcomed their children within its walls; the patients who have arrived seeking answers to difficult medical questions; the individuals who have undergone procedures and treatment; the people who have received emergency care; and the physicians, nurses and healthcare professionals who have dedicated their time and expertise to caring for them.

Every patient becomes part of the continuing story of TriCity Medical Center.Generations of healthcare professionals and employees have contributed to building the institution and maintaining its commitment to the community.Looking Toward the FutureFrom its established home along C. Raymundo Avenue to its present role as a 100-bed Level 2 hospital, TriCity Medical Center continues its journey as a healthcare institution serving Pasig City and neighboring communities.Its future is built on the same fundamental responsibility that has shaped its development: providing healthcare that places the patient at the center of every decision.

As medicine and technology continue to advance, TriCity Medical Center remains committed to developing its capabilities, supporting its healthcare professionals, improving the patient experience and providing medical services that respond to the needs of the communities it serves.The institution’s history continues to be written every day—in every consultation, every treatment, every recovery and every life entrusted to its care.
