Far Eastern University - Nicanor Reyes Medical Foundation

Description:
The Far Eastern University - Institute of Medicine or FEU-NRMF was born from a vision of Dr. Nicanor Reyes Sr. In October 22, 1955, the FEU Hospital opened its doors as a charitable institution and provided actual hospital training for students in medicine and nursing. Erected on a trapezoidal lot at the northeastern part of the campus in Morayta Street (now Nicanor Reyes Sr. Avenue). Built and eqquiped at a cost of P1.5 million, designed by Architect Felipe Mendoza in collaboration with the Hospital Committee chaired by Lauro Panganiban MD, Nicanor Reyes Jr., Angel Palanca, and Ricardo Alfonso MD who later became the first Hospital Director.


Old institute sealA formidable team of clinical experts pioneered the training of future medical practitioners. Most of them have become legends in their lifetime. Fe del Mundo MD, later named as National Scientist, headed the Department of Pediatrics; Carlos Sevilla MD chaired the Ophthalmology Department; Gloria Aragon MD, the OB-GYN Department; Liborio Gomez MD, the Pathology Department; Jose Tirona MD, the X-Ray Department; Perpetuo Gutierrez MD, the Medicine Department; Jesus Nolasco MD, the Physiology Department.

In 1970, the Institute of Medicine, School of Medical Technology, FEU Hospital and the Student Health Service Clinic were converted into a non-stock, non-profit educational foundation known as the FEU Dr. Nicanor Reyes Medical Foundation.

Through the years, it has contributed some of the finest names in the healthcare field: four Secretaries of Health, seven Philippine Medical Association Presidents, six Presidents of the Philippine College of Surgeons and one President of the World Medical Association. In 1986, the Board of Medical Education, DECS, and the Association of Philippine Medical Colleges gave the Institute the highest level of accreditation, and awarded it as a Center of Excellence in Medical Education.
