Farrer Park Hospital


Farrer Park Hospital is a private tertiary healthcare institution in Farrer Park, Singapore opened on 16 March 2016 by Health Minister Gan Kim Yong.
Located above the Farrer Park MRT station, the hospital has a capacity of 220 beds, 18 operating theatres and is connected to Farrer Park Medical Centre which houses 10 floors of suites for over 400 medical specialists.
It plans to operate in a niche below top-end private hospitals and expects half the patients to be medical tourists.

History

Plans for the hospital were first announced in 2008.
In early 2019, the hospital was noted as having a lack of patients, with about 50 to 60 per week at most times, and 50 percent of the medical suites were unoccupied. This was mainly due to the reduced numbers of medical tourists in Singapore, which had halved over the past decade, as well as the hospital's inconvenient location.
