I encourage you to regularly visit our page to get accurate, up-to-date and helpful information on the common hematologic disorders, as well as life-saving scientific breakthroughs on prevention and treatments of these diseases.
Our organization aims to inform, educate and campaign to increase knowledge and awareness of both medical practitioners and general public about the common hematologic disorders.
Digital platforms are critical to sustain engagement with colleagues in the medical fields, as well as friends, supporters and the general public as we continue to face the threats of Covid-19.
As medical professionals, we commit to promote safe and adequate blood supply, and ensure rational blood use.
I hope you will join us in strengthening our efforts to reduce cases of common and preventable hematologic diseases among Filipinos.
With increased knowledge and awareness of these diseases, I believe we can work together to promote measures that will reduce occurrences of environmentally associated hematologic disorders.
Through this platform, our organization also seeks to establish adequate number of accredited training institutions to run clinical, and laboratory hematology that adhere to excellent global standards.
To our esteemed members, let us continue to engage in advancing our professional knowledge and practice so we can provide excellent medical care to our patients.
I hope this page will strengthen partnerships with various government agencies, non-government organizations as well as private organizations in the realization of our common goals and vision to promote effective measures on prevention and treatment of hematologic disorders. May we all stay safe, healthy and full of optimism.

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, it is with great pleasure that we announce our 2nd Virtual Annual Philippine College of Hematology and Transfusion Medicine (PCHTM) Convention this coming September 5-8, 2021, with the theme, “Redefining the “N.O.R.M.A.L.” ( the Novel, the Old, the Real-world, Management Adaptations and Lessons) in Hematology”.
Although it saddened us that we cannot meet face to face because of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is with great faith and hope, that through this virtual annual meeting we would be able to connect and move forward towards accomplishing a vision of a better future for the people with hematologic disorders, and us, their health care providers. The challenges brought about by the daily struggles with the pandemic did not dampen our ties, but strengthened our connections through the accessible quadri-media.
Our Scientific and the different sub-committees have a lot in store for the members and our partners in the clinics and the paramedical specialties. There are a lot of innovations crafted by the members of the organizing team, fully supported by the board of PCHTM. We have the Quiz Bee, the extended Research program, and a lot more. Please see, as follows, the 2021 Organizing Committee members, the initial announcement of our Scientific Program and the 1st Quiz Bee of the Annual Convention.
Calendar these dates! We look forward to a fruitful and productive 2nd Virtual Annual Convention with all of you! Spread the invitation to all who may benefit from this activity!
Keep safe and continue to pray! God bless everyone! We heal as one during this trying times!
Sincerely,
