A private hospital on the Sunshine Coast has reopened after a $10 million transformation.

The Caloundra Private Day Hospital now boasts three state-of-the-art operating theatres and new patient support areas, significantly expanding its capacity to serve patients.

The upgrade will enable locals to access enhanced ophthalmology and endoscopy services.

“The hospital will focus on tailored care, catering to the unique needs of each patient.”

Ms Thurwood said Ramsay Clinic Caloundra remained open at Beerburrum Street. It is dedicated to providing comprehensive mental health inpatient services.
