TMC is a growing healthcare network with its main healthcare complex located along Ortigas Avenue in the business district of Pasig City, Metro Manila, while the provincial hospitals are strategically situated in Clark, Iloilo, Laguna, and Pangasinan. This is supplemented by a network of over 40 clinics in strategic locations scattered all over Metro Manila and in select provinces, a concrete proof of the hospital’s commitment to make high quality healthcare accessible to its growing customer base.
TMC has also taken its brand into the global arena through the ownership and operation of Guam Regional Medical City or GRMC, the first and only private hospital in Guam, and the establishment of ambulatory clinics in Gulf Cooperation Council countries.

OUR SERVICE PHILOSOPHY
TMC has defined for itself the value proposition: “Where Patients are Partners.” This phrase finds its fullest meaning when the patient is viewed not as a problem to be solved or a charge to be cared for, but as a partner in his own health.
Patient partnership means acknowledging the patient's fundamental accountability for his own health, then supporting this with systems, tools and venues for education, open communication, and informed choice. This fresh perspective on the patient's role in health care represents a radical departure from the traditional idea of the patient as a passive recipient of medical services.
The organizational base for engaging this unique service philosophy is the Center for Patient Partnership, which develops and delivers individual and group programs designed to provide accurate and actionable health education and information for the benefit of patients, family members, and caregivers.
