Welcome to the Home Page for the College of Medicine of the University of the East Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Medical Center. The College of Medicine was established in 1957 as the University of the East College of Medicine. In 1958, it became the first unit of the newly organized non-stock, non-profit foundation and renamed as the University of the East Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Medical Center. The foundation was named in honor of the late President Ramon Magsaysay who died in a plane crash in the same year. President Carlos P. Garcia described the founding of UERMMMC as a “great adventure, marking the advent in the Philippines of educational philanthropy”. Today, there are two other units at UERMMMC, namely, the College of Nursing and the College of Physical Therapy.

     The College of Medicine has a total of 227 faculty members in both the Basic Sciences and Clinical Departments. It is one of the thirty-one medical schools in the Philippines.
