About us

The official history of the current University of Santo Tomas Hospital is traced to the formal opening of its charity unit on February 15, 1945, in a building which stood at the rear of the Main Building. The building house classrooms for the medical school and became the site of the first charity hospital. On March 7, 1946, the UST Pay Hospital (Private Division) opened and was inaugurated together with the charity hospital. The very first pay hospital admission was a delivery case – a live female baby.
