Yangon General Hospital

info The Yangon General Hospital (ရန်ကုန် ပြည်သူ့ ဆေးရုံကြီ) was first established in 1899 with a capacity of 342 beds as Rangoon General Hospital.

Later, the head of Public Works Department architect Henry Hoyne-Fox designed the main building and it was constructed during 1904-11 to replace an older teakwood hospital that had become cramped and unsanitary. It was fitted with all the ''latest modern improvements'' in medical services, such as operating theatres with electricity and anesthesia rooms. The 4 storeyed building was built on the 6th of May 1905 with 342 beds. After the second world war, the hospital was renovated and had 546 beds. In 1964, new specialist wards were added, and the capacity was increased to 1500 beds. In, 2015, it was upgraded to the capacity of 2000 beds.
