History
Construction
Construction of the hospital started in 2012 and had cost about SG$635 million to build.[3] The hospital was planned together with the Jurong Community Hospital to cater to the residents living in the Western part of Singapore and it will comprise 8 levels of specialist clinics upon completion.[4]
Delay in completion
The completion of the hospital was delayed by 6 months due to problems with the production of materials needed for the exterior of the hospital.[5] Due to the delay, Alexandra Hospital, which was due to close temporarily for renovation once the hospital is completed, remained operational till construction of the hospital is complete.[6] Later, it was announced that the hospital would open on June 30, 2015.[7]
Opening
The hospital commenced operations on 30 June 2015.[1]
On 10 October 2015, Ng Teng Fong General Hospital, along with Jurong Community Hospital, was officially opened at JurongHealth's Health Carnival, by guest-of-honour Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong.[2]
