Our reputation as a world-class hospital is based on the expertise of our medical specialists, our exemplary care and the wide variety of services we provide under one roof. Our patients benefit from our unique charity status that enables us to reinvest profits in research and clinical trials meaning that we are often able to offer ground-breaking medical approaches and pioneering technologies before other UK hospitals.

Results & Patient Feedback
Best service you will get on all of Harley Street, and in my opinion, private healthcare in London. The staff are happy and you can see that in terms of how they conduct themselves. Staff are always professional, willing to go the extra mile, and work hard to do their very best. The consultants here are fantastic and I would say are hand-picked from the creme de la creme. I have not found another place that is as organized and provides this kind of service that I would expect at a nice private healthcare setting back home in the states (I am comparing this to Johns Hopkins in Baltimore).

I am under the care of two consultants one neuro surgeon one pain consultant and both of these men, are the best at what they do. True professionalism with a duty of care for the outcome of treatment that goes well beyond other hospitals.

I had hip surgery at the London Clinic 6 months ago under Mr Bankes, followed by an initial course of hydrotherapy then ongoing physiotherapy since. All of my treatment as both an inpatient and outpatient has been excellent, and my recovery has been as smooth as can be expected as a result. As someone who did a lot of exercise previously, I am particularly grateful to Danny in the physio department who has been great during the recovery period. He has been very professional and thorough throughout, and listened to my concerns, so has geared my recovery back to an appropriate level of fitness. I would highly recommend the London Clinic, and especially the physio department.

I was treated at London Haematology at the London Clinic. If one has to go through a rough period with their health, the London Clinic is the place you’d want to be. The staff is caring and both I and other patients I spoke to there feel that this Clinic makes the patients feel special and looked after. It also benefits from a number of high caliber doctors such as Prof John Gribben & others. Thank you for providing excellent healthcare!
