Committed to improve the health of Mexico

Centro Médico ABC is a Private Assistance Institution (Institución de Asistencia Privada, IAP), governed by a Board of Trustees made up of distinguished altruistic members of the American, British, Mexican, and international community, which is why we are a non-profit organization.

Our commitment translates into childcare from a double perspective: preventive, oriented towards growth and development; and healing, related to highly specialized services. Both components are essential to ensure that the new generations of Mexicans fully develop and reach their maximum potential.

Strategic Focus

We operate with a tripartite participation model, providing access to high-quality healthcare for all patients. The revenue generated by the patient volume is reinvested into the centers and programs, thereby achieving a sustainable system.

Adn Filantropico Adn Filantropico

We provide access to the most vulnerable sectors in Mexico through three main pillars: research and education, community care, and specialized programs.

Research and teaching

We train doctors, nurses, and health professionals in alliance with UNAM, with the best care and research practices, to guarantee quality and safety in patient care.

Community care

We generate social impact, improving the health of the surrounding community, through first-level care clinics with preventive programs and access to highly specialized health services.

High specialty programs

We provide access to highly specialized health services in an inclusive and supportive way.

Research and teaching

Social Impact

Centro Médico ABC, the School of Medicine and the National School of Nursing and Obstetrics (Escuela Nacional de Enfermería y Obstetricia, ENEO) of the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM) signed an agreement in order for both medical and nursing students to have collaborative and high-level training at the UNAM-ABC School of Medicine and Nursing, which is located in the Amparo Espinosa Rugarcía building, located on the Santa Fe Campus.

ABC provides the facilities and the teachers; UNAM the students and the academic program. Currently, students are in the third year of both degrees, which is when clinical practice begins, that is, they begin their study period in hospitals.

We promote community development through:

  • Teaching: Train health professionals with high ethical values.
  • Well-being: Excellent medical care with a preventive and inclusive approach.
  • Research: Support clinical research programs.
  • Medical equipment upgrade: Staying at the forefront of science and technology.

Community care

Social Impact

In collaboration with its medical staff and civil society public health and philanthropic institutions, Centro Médico ABC offers medical services in an inclusive and supportive manner, in a systematized care model that has proven to be effective and that can be replicated to reach more Mexicans.

Community clinics
We are committed to generating social impact, by improving the health of the surrounding community through first-level care clinics with preventive programs and access to highly specialized health services.

These clinics implement the following programs:

  • “First 1,000 + 1,000 Days” Program:
    This is a specialized program focused on the care of mothers and children, from pregnancy until the child is five years old, emphasizing “Prenatal Health” and “Early Childhood”.
  • Non-Communicable Chronic Diseases: :
    Patients with diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and overweight are treated.
  • Healthcare Networks and Nearby Schools:
    Care for patients from six institutions with which the ABC Medical Center maintains a close relationship.

Medical Altruism

Altruism is the noblest activity that a doctor can carry out, giving his knowledge, skills and time without receiving remuneration in return.

At ABC Medical Center, this altruistic activity reflects the values of the medical staff and its attitude of service. Altruistic care began together with the ABC Foundation in our community clinics and in highly specialized programs.

Since 2018, the ABC Medical Center has implemented the delivery of recognition to doctors for their altruistic work.

Thanks to more than 200 volunteer doctors, we have achieved:
