Located beside the St. Luke’s College of Medicine along Sta. Ignaciana Street, the 13-story North Hospital Building forms a central part of the hospital’s long-term plan to enhance and future-proof its Quezon City facility.
Quezon City marked a major healthcare milestone on Tuesday as St. Luke’s Medical Center topped off its 13-storey North Hospital Building, a key expansion project that will soon consolidate most of its services and significantly enhance patient care delivery.
Located beside the St. Luke’s College of Medicine along Sta. Ignaciana Street, the new building is central to the hospital’s long-term strategy to modernize and future-proof its Quezon City facility, with plans to house nearly 80 percent of its services in a more integrated and accessible setting.
Enhanced Services
Once completed, the new building will house nearly 80 percent of the hospital’s existing services, improving accessibility and streamlining patient flow. It will feature 132 patient rooms, expanded outpatient, diagnostic and therapeutic areas, advanced surgical suites, and dedicated spaces for specialized care.
Hospital officials said these upgrades are expected to improve operational efficiency while elevating patient experience through more integrated and convenient services.
Advanced care
The facility will also incorporate advanced healthcare technologies and adhere to high safety and quality standards, creating a safer and more comfortable environment for patients and healthcare workers.
The topping-off ceremony, leaders said, represents more than structural progress, reflecting the institution’s continued commitment to world-class, patient-centered care.
Looking ahead
Slated for completion in 2027, the North Hospital Building is expected to strengthen St. Luke’s role as a leading healthcare institution in the Philippines.
The milestone follows another recent recognition, as St. Luke’s Quezon City was named Tertiary Hospital of the Year at the Healthcare Asia Awards 2026, underscoring its focus on clinical excellence and innovation.
Officials said the project also honors the collective efforts behind its development and signals a new chapter in delivering compassionate, future-ready healthcare. —Ed: Corrie S. Narisma
