The Ratnam Private Hospital, LTD. is a hospital located in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Founded in 1905 by Dr E.V. Ratnam, the hospital was the first private hospital to be established in the country. It was one of the top hospitals in Sri Lanka, serving many affluent members of society, celebrities, and tourists. The hospital was used for medical tourism by foreign visitors from across Asia, including India, the Maldives, China, Singapore, and more. Today, the hospital is mostly non-functional, being used mostly for small-scale surgeries, as well as being used as an elderly care facility.
