Half a Century of Caring: Hong Kong Adventist Hospital – Stubbs Road 55th Anniversary Celebration
Since its foundation in 1971, Hong Kong Adventist Hospital – Stubbs Road has been dedicated to the mission of "continuing the healing ministry of Christ," committed to providing high-quality and diversified medical services to the people of Hong Kong.
Looking back on 55 years of development, we have grown alongside the Hong Kong community, reaching significant milestones at different stages. In 1971, the hospital was officially established on Stubbs Road, marking the beginning of our pledge to safeguard the health of the public. In 1985, we expanded our clinical services and facilities by establishing the Hong Kong Heart Center to meet the growing healthcare needs. In 2012, we continued to introduce advanced medical equipment and enhance specialist services, with the addition of a new floor to the main building for operating theatres and day-care units, as well as the expansion of the Endoscopy Centre, all aimed at elevating clinical treatment and care quality.
Entering 2026, we are driving further medical innovation by combining our clinical expertise with cutting-edge technology to deliver more precise and safer diagnostic and treatment options for patients. We have introduced the Greater China region's first internationally acclaimed da Vinci 5 surgical system and established the city's first off-campus robotic surgery outpatient center in the heart of Central, dedicated to providing timely and appropriate medical care to our patients.
Looking ahead, we will continue to advance with the times, confronting evolving challenges by adopting state-of-the-art medical equipment and clinical technologies, while continually enhancing our services to contribute even more to the health and well-being of the community.
