Parkway Health (IHH Healthcare Singapore)

Parkway Health, now operating as part of IHH Healthcare — one of the world's largest private hospital groups by market capitalisation — is Singapore's largest private hospital operator. The Parkway group operates three major private hospitals in Singapore: Mount Elizabeth Hospital (Orchard), Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital, Gleneagles Hospital, and Parkway East Hospital (formerly East Shore Hospital), collectively providing over 1,000 private hospital beds for Singapore and international patients.

Parkway Health's Singapore hospitals are widely regarded as the premier private hospital destinations in Singapore, known for their high quality of specialist care, luxurious amenities, internationally trained specialists, and comprehensive international patient services. The hospitals serve as the primary private sector healthcare destination for Singapore's large expatriate community and for medical tourists from across Asia and beyond.

Parkway Holdings Limited was the parent company of the Singapore hospital network before it was acquired by IHH Healthcare (Integrated Healthcare Holdings), a Malaysian-listed company that is one of the world's top-three private hospital groups, with operations across Singapore, Malaysia, Turkey, India, and more than 10 other countries.

Mount Elizabeth Hospital on Orchard Road is Singapore's busiest private hospital and was the first in Asia to perform liver transplantation. Gleneagles Hospital in the Napier Road area is Singapore's largest private hospital by bed count. Parkway East Hospital serves eastern Singapore. Together, these hospitals handle hundreds of thousands of inpatient and outpatient consultations annually.

The Parkway Health network of Singapore hospitals provides the full spectrum of specialist medical and surgical services across more than 30 clinical disciplines, with some of Singapore's most experienced private specialists practising across the group's hospitals.

Key specialties represented across the Parkway hospitals include Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery, Medical and Surgical Oncology, Orthopaedic Surgery and Sports Medicine, Neurology and Neurosurgery, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Paediatrics and Neonatology, Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Transplant Surgery (Liver and Kidney), Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Dermatology and Aesthetics, Endocrinology, Pulmonary Medicine, Nephrology, Rheumatology, Psychiatry, Ophthalmology, ENT, Urology, and Dental and Oral Surgery.

Mount Elizabeth Hospital is Singapore's leading private transplant centre, having performed Singapore's first liver transplant and continuing to conduct complex liver and kidney transplants for both local and international patients. Its Cancer Centre, Heart Centre, Brain and Spine Centre, and Orthopaedic Centre are recognised among the finest in private practice in Singapore.

Gleneagles Hospital's Women's Centre, Fertility Centre, and Paediatric Centre are particularly well-regarded. The hospital also houses one of Singapore's busiest private A&E departments. Parkway hospitals collectively represent the highest concentration of private specialist expertise in Singapore.

Parkway Health's Singapore hospitals are equipped with the highest standard of medical technology and inpatient amenities appropriate to premium private hospital care. All hospitals feature well-appointed single and suite-style rooms, en-suite bathrooms, guest facilities for accompanying family members, and comprehensive amenities for longer-stay patients.

Operating theatres across the Parkway network include dedicated suites for cardiac surgery, neurosurgery, transplant surgery, and minimally invasive and robotic procedures. The da Vinci Surgical System is available for robotic-assisted procedures across multiple specialties. Intensive Care Units cover Cardiac ICU, Neonatal ICU, Surgical ICU, and general High Dependency Units.

Diagnostic technology includes 3T MRI, 256-slice CT, PET-CT, nuclear medicine, digital mammography, cardiac catheterisation laboratories, electrophysiology suites, and comprehensive clinical laboratory services. Radiation Oncology is available with state-of-the-art IMRT and VMAT delivery. The IVF laboratory at Gleneagles meets international embryology standards.

Patient support facilities include concierge services, international patient lounges, in-hospital food and beverage for patients and visiting families, complimentary WiFi, and patient liaison services. The Parkway Cancer Centre and Parkway East Medical Centre extend the group's specialist outpatient footprint beyond the main hospital campuses.

Parkway Health / IHH Healthcare provides world-class international patient services, with a dedicated International Patients Centre (IPC) at each of its Singapore hospitals. The group is one of Singapore's top destinations for international medical tourism, receiving patients from Indonesia, Malaysia, Bangladesh, Myanmar, India, Vietnam, the Philippines, the Middle East, and beyond.

The International Patients Centre provides comprehensive pre-arrival support including appointment coordination with specialists across any of the group's hospitals, remote consultation capability, medical record review and pre-visit assessment, visa invitation letter preparation, airport pickup, accommodation at partner hotels near the hospitals, translator services in multiple languages, and insurance direct billing.

IHH Healthcare's global hospital network means that patients can access Parkway care coordination even before arriving in Singapore through IHH partner hospitals in their home countries. Upon discharge, follow-up care coordination can be arranged through IHH facilities in the patient's home country or via telemedicine.

Language support is available across the Parkway Singapore hospitals in English, Mandarin, Bahasa Indonesia, Malay, Tamil, Thai, and other Southeast Asian languages. The group is particularly well-positioned to serve Indonesian and Malaysian patients due to its strong market presence and cultural familiarity in these key medical tourism source markets.

Parkway Health's Singapore hospitals are licensed by the Ministry of Health Singapore under the Private Hospitals and Medical Clinics Act, with each facility individually licensed and regularly inspected for compliance with Singapore's private hospital standards.

Mount Elizabeth Hospital and Gleneagles Hospital both hold Joint Commission International (JCI) Accreditation, confirming their adherence to internationally recognised patient safety and healthcare quality standards. JCI accreditation is particularly meaningful for the group's large international patient base as it provides an objective, globally recognised marker of care quality.

IHH Healthcare as the parent group is listed on both the Bursa Malaysia and the Singapore Exchange (SGX), making it subject to rigorous corporate governance and disclosure requirements. The group's clinical governance framework sets consistent standards across all IHH hospitals globally.

Parkway hospitals' specialist doctors hold qualifications from the Singapore Medical Council's specialist register, and many hold additional fellowships from the Royal Colleges (UK), the European Board of Medical Specialties, or the American Board of Medical Specialties. The hospitals are consistently ranked among Singapore's top private hospitals in independent patient satisfaction surveys and healthcare quality assessments.
