Many Filipinos are getting more and more meticulous when it comes to their healthcare provider, practitioners or even hospitals. That is why a lot of hospitals today are making sure that they are always providing the best and world-class services, just like Dr. Jesus C. Delgado Memorial Hospital (JDMH).
Founded by a pioneering Medical Examinations Top-notcher from University of Santo Tomas, Dr. Jesus C. Delgado and his wife Mrs. Carmen Bayot-Delgado on August 1, 1948, enhancing the quality of life through excellent personalized patient care was their vision in setting up Delgado Clinic.
As the clinic continues to grow in the 1960’s a helping hand came from their daughter Dr. Mary Rose Delgado- Abad who came back from the United States together with his husband, Dr. Rainerio S. Abad, an OB-GYNE specialist and Oncologist.
After the demise of both Dr. and Mrs. Jesus Delgado in the 1980’s, the reigns of the medical facility were transferred to its former President and Administrator, Ma. Violeta Delgado-Cojuangco, who then completed her master’s degree in Hospital Administration with honors at Ateneo De Manila.
The clinic stayed true to its commitment in rendering high-quality service and continues to meet growing health care needs of the community. In 1988; it was renamed in the memory of the late founder of the clinic, Dr. Jesus C. Delgado Memorial Hospital. (JDMH).
By 2017, JDMH became the 14th family member of the Metro Pacific Group of hospitals led by Mr. Manuel V. Pangilinan. Aside from enabling the 70-bed tertiary hospital to renovate its facilities, this also gave way in making the hospital environment even livelier, as observed positively by the patients. And to deliver excellent service with accuracy and expand its capacity to serve its surrounding communities this also gave room for upgrading its medical equipment.
JDMH is the 2nd in Asia and the very 1st in the Philippines to obtain the Senographe Pristina™ by GE Healthcare, a digital Mammography with Tomosynthesis which allows the patient to control the pressure of the compression, providing them with the comfort and ease the pain during the procedure and delivering exceptional image quality at the same time.
Last June, JDMH also opened their Center for Women’s Health that offers comprehensive health care services specially dedicated for women composed of the following
- First Time Mom Unit- A facility that caters to need of the soon to be first-time moms.
- Ultrasound System: GE Voluson E10- A top-of-the-line premium 4D OB/GYNE machine.
- Digital Mammography: Senographe Pristina ™ by GE Healthcare
Dr. Jesus C. Delgado Memorial Hospital will continue to improve its facilities, equipment, and services in the years to come to fulfill its commitment to provide health care services that works for women of all ages with utmost care and excellent service.
