History Milestones
The inception of KTPH began in 2001 when the Singaporean government announced plans to establish a new general hospital in response to growing population needs in northern Singapore. In 2003, then Health Minister Mr. Khaw Boon Wan confirmed that the hospital would be located in Yishun and challenged the team from Alexandra Hospital to lead its development.
A generous donation of $125 million by the late hotelier and banker Mr. Khoo Teck Puat established a foundation for KTPH's construction and care for financially disadvantaged patients in need, leading to its naming honor. The hospital was officially opened on November 15, 2010.
