Sumandeep Singh does not just design hospitals. He reimagines how people move through them, how they heal, and how clinicians work within them. He works with a global architecture and design firm and brings over seventeen years of experience to some of the world’s most ambitious healthcare projects.. As an increasing number of patients from middle- and lower-income classes opt for treatment in private hospitals, how can hospitals bridge the cost gap? Design is one area that offers possibilities. Singh’s work spans countries such as India, China, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, and the United States.
In an interview with Arunima Rajan, Sumandeep Singh explains how hospitals can turn infrastructure into a long-term asset by focusing on flexibility, standardisation, and future-ready planning. He says design decisions made today must support evolving care models, shifting procedures and rising patient expectations.
