University of Sto. Tomas Hospital

The University of Santo Tomas Hospital (USTH) is the third clinical hospital for the University of Santo Tomas. They received their 1st hospital on an 1875 order from King Alfonso of Spain, setting up instruction in the Franciscan hospital San Juan de Dios, established in 1577.

During the war, San Juan de Dios was changed to hold the Quezon Institute and St. Paul's Hospital given to the university but were destroyed during the Liberation of Manila in 1945. The university built a new facility with the money borrowed from Elizalde and Company and supplies bought from the United States Army.

They opened the charity unit on February 15, 1945, and the private, pay hospital of the UST opened on March 7, 1946. They subsequently grew, with the units combining with the completion of the USTH quadrangle in 1959. The hospital offered genetic counseling to patients in the Philippines, with a prenatal diagnostic clinic opening in 1984 and opened a pediatric intensive care unit three years after.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, they experienced a financial crisis after reporting financial losses, unpaid Phil-health claims, and underpayment of Covid-19 patients. The management decided to reduce its non-essential staffs and delayed pushing through with the move.

The University of Santo Tomas Hospital (simply UST Hospital or USTH) is a hospital located at the University of Santo Tomas. The hospital has two divisions, a clinical teaching hospital that offers inexpensive medical care for indigent patients and a private hospital for patients with financial means, which is partially used to subsidize the clinical division.
