 In 1975, a group of five doctors recognized an inadequacy in experienced medical care and services in the Philippines.They noted that this was partly because of a lack of trained personnel who are committed to render service, especially in rural areas and the government’s slow delivery of such services to the general public.A careful assessment of the problem led them to consider contributing to the training of personnel and finally deciding to put up an institution that will provide skillful and committed workforce in line with the medical field.
