Cebu Doctors' University is a medical university located in Mandaue City, Cebu, Philippines. It was founded in 1975 and as of 2005 it has grown to out-wit other schools in the number of students who passed the board exams for nursing. It has presently 8 colleges and 1 graduate school. It's new campus hosting all the colleges is located at Cebu Boardwalk in Mandaue City. It is the only school in the Philippines declared as a university without having basic education (pre-school - high school) curriculum.

After successfully establishing Cebu Doctors’ Hospital, its core founders conceived the opening of a school of medicine as another venue of service that may have a significant effect and contribution to the welfare and progress of the nation.

Through hard work and sheer determination, the Board of Directors of Cebu Doctors’ Hospital unselfishly devoted their time to secure from the then Ministry of Education, Culture, and Sports, a permit to operate a medical school later called Cebu Doctors’ College of Medicine.On April 21, 1977, Cebu Doctors' College of Medicine (CDCM) incorporation papers were signed and the Securities and Exchange Commission
approved its status as a non-stock, non-profit foundation on December 21, 1977.CDCM formally opened its doors as a medical institution in June of Academic Year 1977-1978. Out of the numerous applicants, only eighty pioneer freshmen were accepted. Since then, its Board of Trustees has pursued a program of expansion which continues to this date enabling CDCM to grow and earn its mark as one of the best medical schools in the country.
On November 23, 2004, Cebu Doctors' College of Medicine officially became Cebu Doctors' University College of Medicine, with the acronym CDU-CM, after Cebu Doctors' College was granted University Status by the
Commission on Higher Education.
