Burapha University Hospital is a university teaching hospital, affiliated to the Faculty of Medicine of Burapha University, located in Mueang Chonburi District, Chonburi Province. It is a hospital capable of super tertiary care.[1]
The Burapha University Health Sciences Center (originally the Medical Center Project), donated by Gen. Arthit Kamlang-ek, was inaugurated on 31 August 1984. It was a two-story building, similar to other existing community hospitals, aimed to provide medical services to local citizens, with the potential of becoming a training institution. By 1985, the outpatient department had expanded, and the center was capable of 24-hour baby delivery. In 2008, following reforms in the university, the hospital operations were transferred to the faculty of Medicine.[2]
