[1] The teaching activities in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology were transferred from Alice Ho Miu Ling Nethersole Hospital to Tsan Yuk Hospital. When Queen Mary Hospital opened in 1937, teaching of gynecology went there while teaching of obstetrics remained at Tsan Yuk. These arrangements remain unchanged.
