MISSION

We are committed to provide responsive, comprehensive, excellent, and affordable cancer care to all, powered by continuing professional development.

VISION

To be the preferred end-referral Cancer Center in the Eastern NCR and CALABARZON area, providing excellent, multi-specialty, oncology healthcare by 2022

As a necessary progression and improvement to the RMC Tumor Clinic that served our cancer patients since 2003, the new Rizal Med Cancer Center is our response to the challenge of treating the “rising global cancer epidemic.”

The Center consists of: 1) The Oncology Unit which houses the Oncology Multispecialty Clinic (OMC), outpatient and ambulatory chemotherapy area and the DOH-Rizal Cancer Registry. It has started its operations in December 2020. 2) Radiotherapy Unit which houses the Linear Accelerator and High-dose brachytherapy equipment for radiotherapy and will commence its operations by August 2021.
