Lorma Medical Center is the leading private care referral center for tertiary cases in Northern Luzon, offering a wide range of diversified services in a strategic location to meet existing needs in the field of health.

Lorma delivers healthcare based on the following core values:

*Personalized service.
*Christian concern for patients and employees.
*Dedication.
*Harmony and family-based relationships.
*Clean, conducive environment.
*Professional and technological growth.

Lorma Medical Center is the 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.”

Lorma Hospital was founded by Dr. & Mrs. Rufino N. Macagba, Sr., both physicians. The name LORMA stands for their family names: LOR-enzana, the maiden name of Dr. Crispina Macagba and MA-cagba.

The hospital began admitting patients on May 12, 1934, auspiciously during celebration of Hospital Day. It started in the four bedroom house of the couple. As patients increased, attracted by the fine medical care and personalized service, more rooms were added. Over the years, many renovations and new constructions have brought about the modern Lorma Medical Center of today.

The hospital is now a modern 136-bed general hospital with about 240 hospital workers; 3.0 workers for every patient on average. It is accredited by the Employees' Compensation Commission and the Philippine Healthcare Insurance Corporation and licensed for tertiary (the highest) level of services by the Department of Health. The hospital is departmentalized containing separate rooms and wards for surgical, pediatric and medical cases. In 1970, it was adjudged as the Most Outstanding Hospital in the Philippines in Community Service.

In 2002, it was awarded the healthiest Private Hospital in Region 1.
