Fores immediately approved their transfer to MakatiMed's pediatric nursery, where they were raised by the pediatric staff until they were ready to be operated on.
The MakatiMed team took nine months of preparation, planning, and mock exercises before the actual operation took place. In May 1998, pediatricians, plastic surgeons, pediatric surgeons, urologists, orthopedic surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses, and operating room attendants spent 17 hours operating.

This recognition was given to the top three hospitals who won the most Asian Hospital Management Awards in the 10 years of HMA.

Partnerships with other hospitals.
MakatiMed launched the Strategic Hospital Alliance Program, or SHAP, in July 2010. The program is geared toward expanding and sharing MakatiMed’s services to the rest of the country by establishing partnerships with hospitals located in other cities and the provinces.
Under this program, MakatiMed’s partner hospitals may refer patients to MakatiMed in order for them to access facilities and services that their local hospitals cannot or do not yet provide. These hospitals can also gain access to diagnostic equipment and tools that would otherwise require substantial investments.
As of September 2012, MakatiMed has 65 hospital partners all over the country.
