About St. Camillus Medical Center
Our History
​
St. Camillus Medical Center (SCMC) is a hospital located in the city of Pasig in Metro Manila, Philippines. It is one of the healthcare institutions managed by the Camillian Fathers, a religious order founded by St. Camillus de Lellis in the 16th century.
​
The history of SCMC can be traced back to 1957 when the Camillian Fathers arrived in the Philippines and established a small clinic in Quezon City. The clinic provided medical care to the poor and marginalized communities in the area, and over time, it grew into a hospital. In 1983, the hospital was relocated to its current location in Pasig City and was renamed St. Camillus Medical Center.
​
Today, SCMC is a secondary hospital with over 40 beds, offering a wide range of medical services, including surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, internal medicine, and critical care. The hospital also has various specialized centers, such as a Heart Station, Dialysis Center, and a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Center.
​
As part of the Camillian Healthcare Institutions in the Philippines, SCMC is committed to providing quality healthcare services to the community, especially to the underserved and marginalized populations. The Camillian Fathers' mission is to continue the healing ministry of Jesus Christ, which includes not only physical healing but also emotional and spiritual healing.
