nose, throat, paediatric, ophthalmology,

Further down south, the KPJ Bandar Dato’
Onn Specialist Hospital in the state of Johor
will offer its services to the public by the
end of 2014. To be located at Bandar Dato’
Onn, a new township located within the
Iskandar Development Region in Johor, this
new flagship hospital will be developed in
two phases. The first phase will comprise
a built-up area of approximately 280,000
sq. ft., a 150-bed capacity, as well as
state-of-the-art centres of excellence that
offer a comprehensive range of services
including oncology, women and children,
cosmetics and reconstruction, orthopaedic,
cardiology and geriatrics services. These
will be at competitive prices to cater to the
more price-sensitive foreign community
from Singapore. When fully completed,
this hospital’s total bed capacity will rise
to 390 beds within a built-up area of
approximately 500,000 sq. ft.
Come 2015, the KPJ Perlis Specialist
Hospital will be ready to serve a population
of around 250,000 people in Kangar
area as well as patients from throughout
the state of Perlis and southern Thailand.
This development not only marks KPJ’s
first foray into the northernmost state of
Peninsular Malaysia, it also marks the
establishment of the first private specialist
hospital in this part of the country.
KPJ is jointly developing KPJ Perlis
Specialist Hospital with Yayasan Islam
Perlis (YIP) on a four-acre plot in Kangar.
With an initial development cost of
around RM30 million, the new hospital
will feature some of the latest diagnostic
imaging facilities and medical equipment.
It will also be equipped with operation
theatres alongside an intensive care unit,
labour room and more than 30 medical
consultant suites. The first phase of this
six-storey hospital development will see
the RM30 million Perlis facility offering 60
beds with the ability to extend its capacity
to a total of 90 beds at a later stage. Upon
this hospital’s completion, other services
including physiotherapy, haemodialysis,
accident and emergency as well as 24-
hour outpatient services will also be made
available.
Down the road, the KPJ Klang Bayu
Emas Specialist Hospital is scheduled to
commence operation in 2015 while the
KPJ Miri Specialist Hospital will kick-start
its operations in 2016. All these eight
developments will add another 1,450 beds
to our total number of operating beds by
2016.
The Group’s First Ambulatory Centre
The partial opening of the Group’s first
ambulatory care centre, the Tawakkal
Health Centre (THC) in early 2013, adds
another feather to our cap. The THC
complements the Group’s main hospital
services offering by catering to our existing
patients and new patients who require
outpatient treatment only.
Following the introduction of the THC’s
dental centre and dialysis services in early
2013, other facilities and services will be
introduced over the course of the year.
These will include a rehabilitation centre
that offers the services of a rehabilitation
physician, physiotherapists, occupational
therapists and speech therapist; a
pharmacy for outpatients; as well as
diagnostic imaging services that will
offer general x-rays and OPG (for dental)
services.
On top of these, there will be eight
consultant suites; a minor operation
theatre that will support the dental centre
and a planned Centre for Sight; as well as
the Tawakkal Senior Living Care that will
cater to senior citizens, especially those
needing assistive care services. Apart
from its clinical services offering, THC is
also setting aside space as retail space.
In total 14 retail lots have been created,
with preference given to health related
businesses.
