Fe Del Mundo Medical Center (FDMMC), a pioneer in child health care in the Philippines, launched its newly renovated buildings and facilities to become a fully-upgraded private-general hospital catering to communities in Quezon City.
The launch held last February 17, 2017, marked the hospital’s full leap from being known as a child and maternal hospital to a holistic medical center offering medical services to patients of all ages, from pre-work to post-care.
Fe Del Mundo Medical Center was founded by Dr. Fe Del Mundo, a distinguished Filipino scientist and pediatrician who received various awards including the Elizabeth Blackwell Award as a “Woman Doctor of World Renown” and the 15th International Congress of Pediatrics Award as the Most Outstanding Pediatrician and Humanitarian

She was the first woman pediatrician to be admitted to the Harvard Medical School in 1936 and the first woman to be named National Scientist of the Philippines in 1980.
Dr. Fe Del Mundo established FDMMC in 1957, first as a Children’s Memorial Hospital which had a 107-bed capacity and a wide-array of services mainly for pediatric patients. In dedication to Fe Del Mundo’s heart for improving the health of every Filipino family, the hospital was also bestowed to a non-stock, non-profit institution named Dr. Fe Del Mundo Medical Center Foundation Phils., Inc. It later became known as the Children’s Medical Center Philippines with expanded health facilities and was renamed to Fe Del Mundo Medical Center in honor of Dr. Fe Del Mundo’s works and achievements.
Since the late 2013, after Fe Del Mundo Medical Center became a member of Mount Grace Hospitals, a dynamic and growing healthcare management group, FDMMC has grown into a bigger and better private-general hospital continuously upholding its legacy of excellence in providing its patients with a warm caring experience.
