The Quezon Institute is a hospital in Quezon City, Philippines.[1]

The hospital was established on 1938 by the Philippine Tubercolosis Society Inc (PTSI, then known as the Philippine Anti-Tuberculosis Society). The Quezon Institute is the biggest unit of the health organization.[2] It was served as the main headquarters of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO), until 2010 when it transferred to the Philippine International Convention Center in Pasay City.[3]

The main building of the health facility was designed by Juan Nakpil.[1]
