Our Mission

Today, St. Martin de Porres stands proudly with its arms open wide to render new hope, haven of rest and medication to thousands laden with varying sickness, due to the hustle and bustle of modern life style. The sensitive, sharp eyed doctors, the gentle skilled care of our nurses and all our responsible staff ministering to the needs of the patients arrouse beacons of hope and zest in life.

The genius Architects, Rev. Fr. Peter Caironi, Rev. Fr. Joseph Taffrel, Sr. Antonietta Sala and Dr. Antony G. Kavalam who blazed the trail ahead of us led us to this day. Their silent yet unfailing witness speaks for itself. Difficulties did not frustrate them; success did not elate them either. Maintaining a healthy equilibrium they have gone into history as sources of great inspiration to all those who 'dare' to follow Magdalene of Canossa.

50 years have rolled by and now we are entering a new era and are literally turning the page to meet the challenges of the future. We now look forward to evermore effective involvement in the lives of the people, in keeping with our logo "walking with the times" a favorite dictum of St. Magdalene of Canossa.
