Great school for those interested in medicine or the allied health sciences. Excellent for undergraduate degrees in the allied health sciences (including Pharmacy, Medical Technology, Nursing, Physical Therapy) but also for the traditional sciences such as chemistry and biology. The medical school is the biggest in the country, providing a rich education based on evidence based medicine with a deep grasp on clinical experience thanks to the school’s affiliated hospital. All med school faculty members are experts in their own right.

The University of Santo Tomas Faculty of Medicine and Surgery is one of the oldest medical schools in Asia that produces quality doctors locally and globally. During my time as a student, I appreciated the hands-on learning experience from professors. The same faculty members inspired me to pursue my specialty in Oncology. Your mentors in the med school are not just your teachers, but they also help direct you to your desired practice. The referral system is also helpful in our practice to help us serve our patients who are in need of expert consultation. There is a new extension hospital that houses even more rooms to do surgical and medical procedures as well as an upcoming research building dedicated to the faculty. The program has always been on top in the Philippines and the commitment to innovations and new facilities keep it relevant for times to come.

The faculty aims to train their students to be competent not just in theoretical but also in the practical field of medicine. Return demonstration of clinical tasks are highlighted by the departments in order to effectively hone the future Thomasian doctors.

UST is a wonderful place to grow and learn. It is filled with amazing people who will nurture the best version of yourself. The university offers a variety of programs that are excellent and topnotch. It is one of the best in country!

One of the oldest school in Asia, University of Santo Tomas gives quality education and an enjoyable experience.

Education and values are of importance in the university.

I have been with the University for more than a decade already and I am very proud I chose to be a Thomasian from College to Medical school up until my training as an Obstetrician. I may say, I grew up in this University and has inculcated its three core values: competence, commitment and compassion. I will forever carry these with me wherever I go, whichever path I will choose. I will surely recommend to the Thomasian way of living.
