Ruttonjee Hospital is a hospital in Wan Chai, Hong Kong. Ruttonjee Hospital (RH) is a recently- redeveloped hospital with a history that goes back more than 140 years. It was a naval and military hospital until 1949, when it had been converted into the Ruttonjee Sanatorium, with the support of Mr Ruttonjee and the Hong Kong Tuberculosis, Chest and Heart Diseases Association. Following a gradual decrease in the number of patients suffering from tuberculosis, the Government decided to strategically change it into a general hospital. Now It is affiliated with the Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine, at the University of Hong Kong, and provides clinical attachment opportunities for the university's medical students.
