PHILIPPINE GENERAL HOSPITAL - CAVITE
Currently, the only Philippine General Hospital (PGH) in the country is located on the University of the Philippines (UP) Manila campus, serving as the primary training center for medical students, primarily from UP Manila.
However, in a landmark development, a new PGH is set to rise in the Province of Cavite—marking the first PGH outside Metro Manila. This initiative aims to ease the patient load at PGH Manila while expanding access to high-quality healthcare in Southern Luzon.
The upcoming Philippine General Hospital - Cavite (PGH Cavite) will be a 600-bed tertiary facility located in the City of Carmona. It will be developed within the expansive 200-hectare SM Carmona City (SMCC)—a township project by SM Prime in partnership with the Local Government of Carmona. This modern mixed-use development will also include a new city hall, a transport terminal, a public market, the Cavite State University (CvSU) Carmona campus, an SM Mall, residential areas, business districts, and recreational spaces.
PGH Cavite is envisioned to play a pivotal role in strengthening the region’s healthcare infrastructure by providing accessible, advanced medical services to the growing population of Cavite and neighboring provinces. It stands to benefit not just the residents of Carmona, but the entire province—ushering in a new era of regional healthcare excellence.
