Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center
Description:
Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center is a General; Tertiary Medical Center; Teaching / Training Medical Facility owned by the Philippine Government.
Its operation started as early as 1911 as Hospital Del Sur and was formally established on April 11, 1913. It was through Republic Act 2725 that granted its legal status on January 12, 1911. The name was then changed to Southern Islands Hospital. With only 30 beds at its inception, it then became 350 beds when it was upgraded to a Medical Center in 1984.
This institution has continued to grow, develop, and improve its services responsive to the changing need of the community. After 79 years of operation, Republic Act 7528 was approved on May 21, 1992, legalizing the change of its name to Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center. Shortly after this, another law was approved increasing the bed capacity to 400 (R. A. 7588 dated June 1, 1992).
Its been a dream of this institution to expand and improve its services offered to conform with the standards of these days and to cope with the increasing number of people sought for care. This dream is not far from reality when the copy of Republic Act 8658 was received authorizing the operation of 800 beds last June 22, 1998.
