Seminary Road, Barangay Bahay Toro, Project 8, Quezon City

The new five-storey Quezon City General Hospital (QCGH) Medical Center is a 250-bed capacity tertiary-level hospital that provides the benefits of modern health care to the city's poor constituents.

Situated in a 3.2-hectare property at Barangay Bahay Toro in Quezon City, the new QCGH is the product of a P1.5-billion redevelopment program directed at modernizing healthcare especially for indigents who cannot afford private hospital rates but certainly deserve the same quality service. The program has produced a new five-storey medical building where patients can expect affordable yet state-of-the-art healthcare utilizing modern technology, including a 4D ultrasound, colposcope with LEEP, two ECG machines, and a computerized radiography and digital fluoroscopy system. The hospital also boasts of a 64-slice CT scan, an acquisition which makes QCGH the first and only local government hospital to own this high-end diagnostic tool. was added to two existing ones.
