Makati Medical Center is a 717-bed tertiary hospital in the Philippines. The hospital began operation on May 31, 1969.[1] Since its start in 1969, the Makati Medical Center has been the birthplace for many dramatic firsts in medical history in the Philippines, in Asia, and the world. They conducted the first successful heart surgery in the Philippines to weatherman and TV host Kim Atienza.[1]

Makati Med's founder, Dr. Constantino P. Manahan went on to become President Sergio Osmena’s adviser on hospitals. Practically all past Presidents, political officials, business and society leaders have come to Makati Med to have themselves treated.[citation needed]

Following the 1991 Bomb plot against the Thomas Jefferson Cultural Center, one of the two attackers was driven to Makati by a cab driver.[2]
