About this facility

The National University Hospital provides advanced medical care and services. Equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, the NUH is a major referral centre that delivers tertiary care for a wide range of medical and dental specialties. It is also the principal teaching hospital of the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine at National University of Singapore (NUS).

The NUH was chosen by Singapore’s Ministry of Health in 2007 to develop two new national specialist centres: the National University Heart Centre, Singapore and National University Cancer Institute, Singapore to meet the growing need for cardiac and cancer treatments.

NUH strives to achieve the highest quality standards. This is monitored by the tracking of clinical quality indicators across the different departments. Besides allowing for continual improvement in treatments, it also enables patients to make informed choices about the hospital they choose to go to for their treatment.
