“A smiling face is the mirror of our body and can heal sick patients” – Last March I came here for check-up. I was then referred to Dr. Espinosa so I went to his clinic. He sent me back here for EEG. The staff downstairs at the front office did the EEG for me right away so I had the time to go back to Dr. Espinosa who interpreted the result. It was done so fast that we had the time to go back to Ilocos that same day. I thank the staff very much. To Lorma as a whole, thank you so much and may God bless you all. All the staff and employees of Lorma Hospital are very friendly. I’m very glad to see their smiling faces every morning. Keep up your good work!!!

Thank you for my pleasant stay at Lorma. Keep up the excellent care & service. Dr. Nelson Gundran is very patient, good physician. He listens well to patient’s complaints. He shows happy disposition. Hope he’ll be a fellow soon.
Thanks doctor!

“I have been supplied with newspapers everyday. I had been to big and modern hospital in Manila, and it’s only here that we are given newspaper.  Nursing personnel – prompt in doing things for patients’ comfort.  Very good big, and clean trash cans."

“My thanks to Dr. Gamboa and MCO in the ER who gave a helping hand during my life and death situation. I can’t forget all of you who gave me my second life and of course to our beloved God Almighty who used your hospital to help me survive. I was so satisfied. In behalf of my small kids, husband and my relatives, thank you very much! God bles you all!” – From 2A (Ward)

Lorma hospital has improved a lot when it comes to services. The personnel are so caring and they always offer a friendly smile. I am happy to see some interns who were my former students in high school. They are so cheerful and fresh looking which help the patients recover fast. LORMA EXCELLENT! – From Rm. 222

During his speech, Dr. Bautista welcomed the challenge of directing the medical services of Lorma and emphasized special effort in maintaining the hospital's leadership position in the province and the region.  His philosophy of cooperation among all departments within the hospital working towards a common goal is in line with Lorma's core values.  Dr. Bautista also reminisced about his childhood when he used to accompany his uncle, Judge Alfredo Tadiar, as he courted then Dr. Florence L. Macagba, who Judge Tadiar eventually married. 

As Dr. Bautista grew up, Lorma Medical Center was always a place he visited and fondly remembers until he eventually joined the Lorma Visiting Consultants Group in 1997.  Since then, his outstanding surgical performance and ability to work with physicians from different specialties developed and eventually earned him the top spot in the administration of medical services at Lorma.

Lorma Medical Center is the best known and largest private hospital in Region 1. Since it was launched in 1934, it has set the standard for quality care, cleanliness, specialization and technology—and it is affectionately called the “St. Luke’s of the north.”
