Launching offers on orthopaedics screening and surgery packages promoting sports and community well-being

(4 February 2025 – Hong Kong) Gleneagles Hospital Hong Kong (Gleneagles) is committed to upholding the sustainability aspiration, “Care. For Good.”, of its parent company IHH Healthcare and strives to care for our patients, our people, the public and our planet through various initiatives including health promotion within the community. In line with these ongoing efforts to engage with the public, Gleneagles is proud to sponsor the Hong Kong International Horse Show to be held during 14-16 February 2025 at the AsiaWorld-Expo. Through this partnership, the hospital aims to raise awareness of the importance of sports and the health of our community. A series of related health education campaigns and special offers will be launched, with the hope of promoting equestrian sports to the public while emphasising the significance of maintaining overall health.

As one of Hong Kong’s major sports events this year, the Hong Kong International Horse Show is expected to attract thousands of equestrian enthusiasts and sports lovers. Dr Kenneth Tsang, Regional Chief Executive Officer of IHH Healthcare North Asia and Chief Executive Officer of Gleneagles, said, "We are dedicated to providing high-quality healthcare services and raising public health awareness through various initiatives and programmes.

We hope that participants will enjoy the excitement of the sport while staying mindful of their safety and well-being.”

Raise awareness of bone health through launching special offers on screening and surgery packages

Gleneagles is committed to offering comprehensive healthcare services and has established different specialist service centres, including the Joint Replacement Centre and Spine Centre, which provide offers on a range of related health check-ups and surgery packages. In support of the Hong Kong International Horse Show, Gleneagles is introducing special offers on the packages for robotic-arm assisted spinal fusion surgery and osteoporosis screening to encourage the public to be more conscious of bone health and allow patients in need to receive appropriate treatment to improve their spinal health.

Special offers on packages of robotic-arm assisted spinal fusion surgery and osteoporosis screening

Gleneagles strives to introduce innovative and advanced surgical and medical equipment to further enhance treatment outcomes and patient experience. With the aim towards improving surgical precision and safety and reducing the risk of complications, the hospital has recently introduced a robotic-arm system to assist in spinal fusion surgeries. The hospital is now offering related all-inclusive surgery package deals which cover doctor’s fees, room charges, implant costs, etc, within the scheduled length of stay. The packages provide clear and transparent pricing, offering patients greater peace of mind. These offers will be given on a first-come, first-served basis.

The above is complemented by a limited offer on osteoporosis screening package to raise awareness of this common yet often overlooked condition. With osteoporosis being particularly prevalent among middle-aged and elderly individuals, as well as postmenopausal women, early prevention and treatment are critical in reducing the risk of fractures. The offer aims to encourage more individuals to undergo early detection and management of their bone health and ultimately improving their quality of life.

24-hour medical services to protect health of the public

Beyond special offers on sports injury treatment, Gleneagles’s 24-hour Outpatient and Emergency Department is equipped to provide immediate, one-stop services for patients suffering from sports injuries or joint issues. Patients have quick access to X-rays and be referred to orthopaedic surgeons for further examination, diagnosis and rehabilitative care. To further enhance patients’ accessibility to high-quality care, the hospital also offers non-emergency medical escort services. Gleneagles is the first private hospital in Hong Kong to offer point-to-point medical escort services, with the services extending to Mainland China. These cross-border services include cashless arrangements, family accommodation bookings and doctor appointments, allowing a seamless healthcare experience for patients.

During the three-day event, Gleneagles will have an exhibition booth at the Horse Show to interact with local and overseas visitors and introduce to them the background and healthcare networks of IHH Healthcare, Gleneagles Hong Kong and Parkway Shanghai. Dr Kenneth Tsang added that, "As a key stakeholder in promoting health, we are pleased to be able to ride on these activities to connect with the community and contribute to the overall wellbeing of all."
