the Philippines. The Center has brought renewed hope especially to those who otherwise
could not afford specialized medical care.
Now on its fourth decade of dedicated service, the Center continues to bring increased
optimism not just to Filipinos but to the people of the Asia-Pacific region as well as other
countries who look to this medical facility as a wellspring of a healthier and longer life. The

Center has gained a reputation as one of the busiest Congenital Heart Surgery centers in
the region where patients from as far as South Pacific Islands and the Middle East travel to

the Philippines and receive quality service at reasonable prices.

As symbolized by its four-heart logo, the Center offers a comprehensive program of patient
ro
care, education and training, research, and public information. The Center extends the best

and most efficient medical services to its patients by maintaining a pool of well-trained and
co
highly-experienced physicians and other medical personnel who utilize some of the latest in
technology and procedures in cardiovascular science.

nurses, and paramedical personnel. Completing its fourfold objective is the task of informing
is
the public about the risk factors as the healthy lifestyle that guarantee longer, more
Th
productive lives through the Center's public information and community service program.
At the moment, the Philippine Heart Center is heavily involved in improving its facilities to
keep up with world-class standards, expanding its capacity and upgrading its human and
technological resources to meet the increasing demand for its services. Amidst this self-
imposed act of renewal, the Center remains in focus in terms of its primary mission: to care
for those who need the best of what medical science with a social conscience has to offer.
