St. Luke's Medical Center (SLMC) is a private non-profit[1] health care institution based in Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines which operates two hospitals of the same name in Quezon City and Taguig.[2][3][4]

The first health facility of the St. Luke's Medical Center was established in Tondo, Manila in 1903 which later moved to Quezon City in 1961. The second hospital would be inaugurated in Taguig in 2010.

History

St. Luke's was established in October 1903 by American Episcopalian missionaries as a charity ward and dispensary hospital led by retired bishop Charles Henry Brent. St. Luke's started out as the Dispensary of St. Luke the Beloved Physician, a fully free outpatient clinic for the poor in Calle Magdalena (now Masangkay Street) in Tondo, Manila.[5] It also supports and conducts medical, dental and surgical missions in rural areas.

The 30-bed University Hospital would be inaugurated on October 23, 1907. The bed capacity was increased to 52 three years later.[6]

In 1912, the University Hospital would be renamed as St. Luke's Hospital to distinguish it from the University of the Philippines Hospital.[6]

The health facility would move to Quezon City in 1961.[5]

It was transformed into an independent, non-sectarian, non-stock, non-profit corporation in the 1975.[6]

St. Luke's Medical Center would open its second hospital at the Bonifacio Global City in Taguig in 2010.[7]
