養和醫院擬遷來黃竹坑 Sanatorium and Hospital Plan to Move in WCH

今天多份報章報道，本港富豪醫院養和醫院因城規會否決其原址擴建，準備上訴，如再遭否決，醫院將申請政府撥黃竹坑南風道近聖保羅新校附近的一塊「政府、機構或社區用地」，以重建醫院。如確定這個新址，需六至八年時間完成重建項目，耗資將逾十五億元。

養和醫院表示黃竹坑將來的南區地鐵方便醫生從市區來往醫院，且鄰近海洋公園、高爾夫球會及沙灘等消閒設施，開拓醫療旅遊，有助發展本港成為優質醫療中心。

 

雖屬初期計劃階段，我會留意此事發展對本區的各項影響。未知各位怎麼看這件事?

 

 

The Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital failed to proceed its present site expansion program because the proposal was rejected the Town Planning Board. The private hospital aims to double its capacity to 1,000 beds, and submitted the high-rise plan last year. It's seeking appeal and planing to move in WCH if the proposal is rejected again.

The hospital eyes on  a new location at Nam Fung Road, it claims that WCH is a good location because the South Island Line of MTR will be put into service around 2015 and there are beaches and golf playground are nearby. its near the new hospital will help to boost the medical tourism

Though it's just a initial plan of the hospital, I'll keep eyes on its development.

I'll be appreciated if you could share you views on this issues with me.
