RafflesHospitalShanghai Opening - 26 July 2021

Singapore, 22 July 2021 - RafflesMedicalGroup (the Group) is pleased to announce the opening of RafflesHospitalShanghai - a 400-bed tertiary hospital spanning 70,000 sqm in the Shanghai international business district of Pudong Qiantan on Monday, 26 July 2021.

Like RafflesMedicalGroup's flagship hospital in Singapore, RafflesHospitalShanghai also adopts the group practice model to provide patients with a comprehensive range of medical care. This medical treatment model is backed by a clinical practice framework, and expresses the group's medical philosophy - where medical teams of different specialists work together to provide patients with high quality evidence-based care.

RafflesHospitalShanghai is designed with the environment and sustainability in mind. The building incorporates a 'green building' concept, introducing gardens and an environmentally conscious layout that integrates sustainability into every detail of the hospital so as to provide comfort, safety and privacy for patients during the course of their treatment.

With the addition of RafflesHospitalShanghai, the Group now operates two international tertiary hospitals in China, in addition to its RafflesHospitalBeijing; serving more patients who seek high quality, seamless and personalised medical care for themselves and their family members.

"The opening of RafflesHospitalShanghai marks an important milestone for the Group. It is a major step in our effort to provide international tertiary level medical services to locals and expatriates living in Shanghai, including the surrounding provinces as well as international patients from neighbouring countries. We are confident that RafflesHospitalShanghai will become one of the landmark buildings in Pudong Qiantan, and a centre of medical excellence in the Yangtze delta region," said Dr Loo Choon Yong, Executive Chairman, RafflesMedicalGroup.
