If you like nature, we'd suggest going for Jurong since it's right next to Jurong Lake Gardens. Some buyers are more superstitious, so yes there's a possibility that homes near hospitals (like this Yishun BTO) may fetch a lower price. But in general there are other factors at play, such as the other amenities nearby and the flat condition. For instance, the first million-dollar flat in Yishun is located right across the street from the hospital (https://www.99.co/singapore/insider/yishun-flat-sold-1-million-february-2022/). At the same time, we'd like to highlight that this is a rare case and is more likely due to it being a jumbo flat. There's also some rental opportunity for the Yishun BTO; for instance you can consider renting it out to healthcare workers working nearby.
