The Medical City expands advanced healthcare access across Central, North Luzon

The Medical City (TMC) is bringing world-class healthcare closer to families in Central and North Luzon through continued investments in medical specialists, advanced technology, modern facilities, and specialized services at The Medical City Clark (TMC Clark) and The Medical City Pangasinan (TMC Pangasinan).

As the country’s largest healthcare network operating under a single brand, TMC has five hospitals and more than 70 clinics nationwide, providing patients access to quality healthcare without the need to travel to Metro Manila.

“Our goal is to ensure that Filipinos do not have to leave their communities to find world-class care. As we strengthen our regional hospitals as centers of excellence, we are building a network that brings advanced medicine closer to the people who need it,” said Dr. Stuart Bennett, TMC President and Group CEO.

The Medical City Clark: Advancing Specialized Care in Central Luzon

Now in its 11th year, TMC Clark remains the first and only Joint Commission International (JCI)-accredited hospital in Central and North Luzon, upholding global standards in healthcare quality and patient safety.

The 103-bed hospital, strategically located in Clark Freeport Zone, ranked 15th nationwide in Newsweek’s World’s Best Hospitals 2026, the only Pampanga hospital on the list.

It also earned the Patient Safety Program of the Year at the Healthcare Asia Awards 2025 and CSR Company of the Year at the Asia CEO Awards 2024.

Among its advanced medical capabilities are the region’s first Hybrid Cardiac and Vascular Catheterization Laboratory, specialized neurosurgery and interventional neurology services, and the first mechanical thrombectomy performed north of Metro Manila.

Its Julius K. Quiambao Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging Center houses a PET-CT scanner for precision cancer staging, complemented by sentinel node localization services.

TMC Clark also operates Central Luzon’s first and only specialized burn unit, while serving as a major emergency and trauma response hub for the region.

“Our patients in Central Luzon deserve the same standard of care they would find anywhere in the world. Every new capability we add is meant to give families access to treatment closer to home,” said Earline D. Borlongan, TMC Clark Hospital Director.

The Medical City Pangasinan: Bringing Comprehensive Care Closer to North Luzon
Serving Dagupan City and neighboring communities since 2015, TMC Pangasinan continues to strengthen healthcare access for patients across Pangasinan, Ilocos, and the Cordillera regions.

Under Dr. Juan Antonio Maximiano R. Escano, President and CEO, the hospital is upgrading its clinical capabilities, facilities, patient accommodations, and wellness services to deliver comprehensive, patient-centered care.

“For many families in North Luzon, getting advanced care used to mean a long journey to Manila. We are committed to making that journey unnecessary wherever possible, while keeping our patients connected to the expertise of the entire TMC network,” Dr. Escano said.

Bringing Advanced Care Closer to More Filipinos
Through TMC Clark and TMC Pangasinan, The Medical City continues to bridge healthcare gaps by bringing specialized treatments, modern medical technology, and expert care within easier reach of regional communities.

Backed by TMC’s nationwide network, both hospitals reinforce the Group’s commitment to making advanced, patient-centered healthcare more accessible—bringing world-class healing closer to home, where families need it most.
