That statement addresses two occasions of him being asked to wear a mask, there was another occasions not mentioned in that hospital statement.Not true.
Statement from Hexham hospital
Our mask-wearing rules are very clear, and it is important to note that everyone that was part of the official visit to Hexham General Hospital on Monday 8 November were formally advised and reminded of these rules on the day.
“Information was included in the written programme.
“These rules include information about mask-wearing and other infection prevention and control measures, such as hand-washing, tucking away loose clothing (ties), and having rolled-up sleeves.
“After the Prime Minister left a welcome meeting, he walked along a mezzanine corridor, for a very short period of time, without a mask.
“This brief moment was captured on camera.
“As soon as this was identified he was given a mask and he put it on.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson was told three times to keep his face mask on during a visit to a hospital, according to the Daily Mirror's lead story. The paper says he has been accused of "callous disregard" for the NHS.

“Wear a mask when you enter the hospital”: it’s hard to be clearer than that isn’t it? I’d imagine the vast majority of the electorate would take it as read that this statement not only applies to the act of entering the hospital, but also in fact to the state of being in the hospital, and therefore wearing a mask for the whole of your visit. So what was the prime minister doing there? And why was he not wearing a mask for the entire duration of his visit? Even if none of the above registers, he’s in a hospital. All the doctors and nurses are wearing masks. It’s completely incomprehensible behaviour.

Why is he so incapable of following the same rules as everyone else?https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-the-papers-59256729

It was bad enough that he exploited the opportunity to waste 6 hours on a train, to avoid facing an angry parliament, but to flagrantly not wear a mask in a hospital while doing so is beyond poor excuses.
