CAPITOL Medical Center (CMC), a premier medical institution based in Quezon City, recently celebrated its 52nd anniversary with a gala celebration to honor hospital service awardees from the medical staff and employees.

Held at the Matrix Creation Events Venue last June 17, 2022, 27 doctors were recognized for rendering from 35 years to 45 years of service. On the other hand, 68 employees were given awards for their service and loyalty to the institution. Recognized were employees who have worked at CMC for five to 35 years.

Gamboa, CMC Chairman of the Executive Committee; Victoria Tan, CMC President; Dr. Ma. Mystica Flodalyn Bautista, Quality Management Representative; Gil Faustino; Finance Director and Norielee Magsingit, Nursing service Director. Also, on hand to witness the activity were Drs.
