nope, but rather after him:

Vicente Yap Sotto, also known as Nyor Inting (1877-1950) was a former Senator of the Philippines and considered as one of the greatest Cebuanos of the 20th century.

His principal achievement lies in two areas: law, politics, and government; and culture and letters.

...Sotto is regarded as the Father of Cebuano Language and Letters...

...Sotto was the main author of the Press Freedom Law (now known as the Sotto Law, Republic Act No. 53) enacted in 1946. The Sotto Law protects journalists from being compelled to name their news sources...

New building in Bajada inaugurated in December 1964 but transfer was completed in 1966. Officially designated as Medical Center for Mindanao and Sulu by the Department of Health under A.O. 157 effective January 1, 1971.

RBC Tagging - for GI bleeding (they "tag" RBC's and monitor their movement)
RAI - for diagnosing and managing thyroid disorders like goiter
Urea Breath Test - to diagnose ulcers caused by the bacteria H.pylori
Bone Scans - to see how much of your bone is dense enough to be normal. could also show bone metastasis from cancer

It started in 2004.Too expensive actually.
