Our history

"Just as a battlefield is haloed by noble deeds, we dedicate this piece of land to the continuing battle against diseases and infirmity."

Dr. Constante D. Quirino
                                                                                                                                                                                 


In the late 1950s, a group of Tarlaqueño doctors realized the need for an alternative private healthcare provider in the province of Tarlac. These doctors believed that the people of Tarlac deserved a new, modern hospital offering improved and more effective healthcare services, and they were determined to build it themselves. On February 2, 1962, the Central Luzon Doctors' Hospital, was formerly incorporated. In April 4, 1964, the construction of the hospital's first building along the Hospital Drive in San Vicente started with the laying of the corner stone.
