The Medical Specialist Group occupied the new building on September 28, 1991. With an increasing demand in quality health care, the group expanded its services to include Ophthalmology, Ultrasonography, improved services in laboratory and pathology and added more private rooms by completing the third floor of the building.

As the organization grows more complex, the group has decided to operate within a framework of policies and strategies by establishing a corporate goal and creating a professional team and formally registered the business with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a Corporation.

The Kidapawan Medical Specialists Center, Inc. was registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission in 1989. As a corporation, the hospital now functions through the Board of Directors.
