In celebration of the 74th Liberation Day and 25th Cityhood Anniversary of the City of Mandaluyong, Mayor Carmencita A. Abalos bestowed the Ulirang Mandaleño Special Award to Victor R. Potenciano Medical Center.

The awarding ceremony was held during the Liberation Ball 2019 held at the Wack-Wack Golf & Country Club last February 7.

The award was presented to VRP“for having passed on its good name for generations as a leading health care facility in existence for more than half a century that it has become a byword and landmark in the city.”

This honor is also another feather in VRP’s cap coming on the heels of the institution’s ISO re-accreditation in 2018. The special recognition—a first for an institution, further reaffirms the Medical Center’s commitment to quality health care as it also coincides with the 46th Founding Anniversary this month of the only Level 3 private hospital in Mandaluyong City.
