North District Hospital (Chinese: 北區醫院; Cantonese Yale: Bākkēui Yīyún) or NDH is a district general hospital serving the population of the New Territories East Cluster. It has now 683 in-patient beds,[1] 24-hour Accident & Emergency service, specialist out-patient, day and community facilities.[2]

NDH is the first hospital completely planned and built by the Hospital Authority since their establishment in 1990. After five years' construction, the hospital commenced service in February 1998.[2] The location was formerly known as the Dodwell's Ridge Camp (Chinese: 天祥營; Cantonese Yale: Tīn chèuhng yìhng) of the Royal Hong Kong Police Cadet School.
