The National Institute of Cancerology is a decentralized organization of third level, linked to the Ministry of Health. It provides specialized medical care to cancer patients and is also a referral center and cancer’s governing body in Mexico. It is part of a comprehensive system of 12 highly specialized hospitals that provide public health services to the population. Since 1980, importance was placed on the developed areas of Basic and Clinical Research. With regard to equipment, the Institute placed among the best oncologic units in the country.
The Institute has achieved international recognition for its participation with institutions such as the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), the International Union Against Cancer (UICC), the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center (UTMDACC), and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in the U.S. The INC is the coordinator of 25 State Cancer Centers (CEC) in Mexico, thus offering a unique possibility for designing common programs and strategies for better cancer control of a national character, and for achieving an impact at the national level on improving cancer prevention and early detection, reducing the morbi-morbility of cancer in Mexico.
An Information Center (INFOCANCER) was established for patients with cancer, their relatives, and for the public in general. Its objective is to provide simple and accessible information to the general public on cancer.
INC coordinates the development of the National Program of Control of Cancer (PNCC), which includes five central themes:
- Prevention and early detection of cancer.
- Oncological guides for the 10 most frequent neoplasms in Mexico.
- Palliative care.
- Medical infrastructure and Medical services administration.
- Control of tobacco consumption.

The Luis Guillermo Ibarra Ibarra National Rehabilitation Institute has its origins in 1951 with the creation of the General Directorate of Rehabilitation of the Ministry of Health and Assistance, composed of various centres specialised in rehabilitation for different disabilities. Over the decades, different institutes were transformed and unified, such as the Rehabilitation Medicine Institute, the Orthopaedic Institute and the Human Communication Institute, culminating in 1997 with the creation of the National Rehabilitation Centre (CNR), which in 2005 was consolidated as the National Rehabilitation Institute (INR).
Today, the INR is a highly specialised institution recognised nationally and internationally for its leadership in orthopaedics, rehabilitation medicine, audiology and otorhinolaryngology. It actively participates in international cooperation programmes, develops extramural campaigns and maintains quality standards certified by the Consejo de Salubridad General and ISO 9001. Since 2015, it has been named after Luis Guillermo Ibarra Ibarra in honour of his outstanding legacy.
It is a health institution dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of disability through scientific research, training of human resources and specialised medical care of excellence with a humanistic approach.

The Hospital Juárez de México, founded on 23 August 1847, has more than 170 years of history providing medical care to the population. It was born as a Blood Hospital during the American invasion and over time it consolidated as a national reference institution, recognised as the “cradle of surgery in Mexico”. Throughout the 19th century, it expanded its capacity, became a teaching hospital and made important medical advances, such as the first blood transfusion and the first Mexican X-ray. In honour of President Benito Juárez, it adopted its current name in 1872.
During the 20th century, the hospital was strengthened with new areas, services and technology, including the creation of the country’s first Blood Bank (1942) and Bone Bank (1945). After the 1985 earthquake, which destroyed its facilities, it was rebuilt and reopened in 1989 in the north of Mexico City. More recently, it faced damage from the 2017 earthquake and the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, during which it was a designated hospital for the care of SARS-CoV-2 patients. Currently, the Hospital Juárez de México continues its modernisation process and maintains its commitment to medical care, teaching and research at the service of the population.
