The Philippines was still emerging from the ruins of the Second World War. Morbidity and mortality rates were high. Many places in the country were without adequate health services and there was a need for more doctors. There were only five medical schools graduating a little over a thousand physicians annually and less than 10,000 physicians in the whole country with twenty million people – a ratio of one for every 2,000 people. The opening of the UE College of Medicine was President Francisco Dalupan’s answer to the needs of the youth and the country.
