Background

Gleneagles Hospital Hong Kong is built on the site of the former Nam Fung temporary housing area in Wong Chuk Hang. The area was cleared in 1994. In 2009, the
Hong Kong government The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, commonly known as the Hong Kong Government or HKSAR Government, refers to the Executive (government), executive authorities of Hong Kong Special administrative regions of China, ...
invited local and overseas organisations to submit expressions of interest for the development of private hospitals at four sites. Wong Chuk Hang was the most popular site with 12 organisations showing interest. One of the tendering terms required that 30 per cent of services must be provided at standard package prices. The site eventually was awarded to GHK Hospital Limited for HK$1.69 billion in 2013. Parkway Pantai and NWS Holdings contributed 60 and 40 per cent respectively of the total investment cost of approximately HK$5 billion. Gleneagles opened its first satellite medical clinic, Gleneagles Medical Clinic Central, Hong Kong, on 1 March 2019, providing a range of services including general and specialist outpatient consultation, health screening services, vaccination etc. The Clinic was expanded and relocated to New World Centre in Central in October 2020 to accommodate continuous growth in demand. It offers services of diverse specialties covering Cardiology, Family Medicine, Gastroenterology and Hepatology, General Surgery, Geriatric Medicine, Ophthalmology, Orthopaedics, Otorhinolaryngology, Paediatrics, Respiratory Medicine and more.
