The history of the Hospital Universitario San Vicente de Paul dates back to 1912 when a group of philanthropists from Antioquia came up with the idea of building a hospital. At that time, there was only one hospital in the city of Medellin, San Juan de Dios Hospital, but its conditions were pitiful: the premises were small, the furniture was completely deteriorated, the surgical and scientific instruments were incomplete and deficient, and there weren’t enough beds. The patients had to lie around on sidewalks for days, waiting for their turn to occupy a bed.
