Wood Road (Chinese: 活道) is an L-shaped road in the Wan Chai district of Hong Kong Island. It connects Wan Chai Road in the northeast, opposite to C C Wu Building and Oriental 188 Shopping Centre, and Queen's Road East in the southwest, between the Tung Wah Centenary Plaza Garden and St. Joseph's Primary School. There is a staircase at the end of Wood Road and vehicles cannot drive directly from Wood Road to Queen's Road East. Wood Road is not a main road for traffic, but as there are two primary schools, two secondary schools and the Morrison Hill campus of the Hong Kong Institute of Vocational Education in the area, a large number of students use the road on daily basis.

It was opened in 1969 to replace the Eastern Public Dispensary and other clinics on Hong Kong Island. The hospital merged administratively and operationally with Ruttonjee Hospital in 1998 to form one hospital and is a critical centre for emergency and vehicular accidents. It was named after its benefactor, the late Sir Tang Shiu-kin, Kt, C.B.E., LL.D. O.S.T. (Japan), J.P., KStJ, a famous Hong Kong philanthropist.
