Compiled by this site: packages that include the doctor's fee cost about HK$18,100 to HK$34,090; the package that covers only the hospital charge and does not include the doctor's fee is HK$10,000. Room class, length of stay and restrictions differ between packages, so compare using the ‘Scope’ column and the notes.
How this list was put together: an institution is listed when it publishes this fee on its own website and this site has checked the figures against that fee schedule. The rows are in a fixed order, not in order of price; this site does not recommend any institution, the order says nothing about quality, and the list is not every institution in Hong Kong.

Frequently asked questions
Why do circumcision package prices and bill statistics differ?
A package price is a fee set by the hospital and covers only the items specified; some packages cover only the hospital charge. Bill statistics are the actual total charges of past cases published by the hospital, including the doctor's fee and the hospital charge, and are for reference only.
Does a circumcision package include the doctor's fee?
It depends on the hospital. The packages of CUHK Medical Centre, Hong Kong Adventist Hospital – Tsuen Wan, Union Hospital, Matilda International Hospital and Precious Blood Hospital (Caritas) in the table include the doctor's fee; the package or fee of Gleneagles Hospital Hong Kong covers only the hospital part, and the doctor's fee is charged separately.
Is there a cheaper option?
Some private hospitals have packages that cover only the hospital charge, with the doctor's fee charged separately, for example Gleneagles Hospital Hong Kong's day-case package at HK$10,000 (normal risk); Hong Kong Adventist Hospital – Tsuen Wan also has a low-charge bed package, HK$18,350 with local anaesthesia, for Hong Kong permanent residents only.
