The hospital started as Baguio Sanatorium in February 3, 1902 pioneered by Dr. Eugene Stafford, captain of the staff of General Arthur MacArthur in the 1900’s.
The name of the hospital was changed to Baguio General Hospital in 1937 and Dr. Esquivel took over as chief of hospital in that same year.
In 1970, Baguio General Hospital was designated as the Medical Center for Northern Luzon and Dr. Efraim C. Montemayor took over as chief of the hospital. In 1981, the name of the hospital was changed to Dr. Efraim C. Montemayor Medical Center in honor to the late chief.
