ASSUNTA Hospital, which marks its 70th anniversary this year, has seen generations of mothers walk through its doors and babies being delivered, with each of the latter being affectionately nicknamed an ABC – “Assunta-born child”.

“We have also had doctors who were born at this hospital and are now working here as specialists, as well as doctors from two generations of the same family working here – such as father and son pairs,” said Assunta Hospital chief executive officer Wilson Choo.
