Hospital Seri Botani Opens

With the opening of Hospital Seri Botani, residents in Ipoh South and its greater region will have quick access to quality, efficient, and affordable private healthcare.

The hospital, which opened its doors on 7th February 2023, organised its first public event in a 3-day Open Day celebration recently to create health awareness among the public, as well as to showcase its facilities.

Hospital Seri Botani strategically sits on a piece of land that measures 18.4 acres as part of the 1,200 acreage mixed development of Bandar Seri Botani’s self-sustaining township. At this point, Phase One of the hospital is completed with six acres of land used, at a cost of RM110 million. It currently offers 30 patient beds, and is expected to have a total of 150 beds, gradually increasing over the next few years when it is full-fledged in operation.
