The London Clinic

The London Clinic is the UK’s largest independent charitable hospital. The world-class Harley Street hospital specialises in oncology, orthopaedics, lung health, ophthalmology, kidney care and men’s and women’s health

For nearly 100 years, The London Clinic has been at the forefront of independent healthcare in the UK. Located in the prestigious Harley Street medical district, it is the UK’s largest independent charitable hospital, offering award-winning nursing care (LaingBuisson’s Nursing Team of the Year 2024) and treatment across a broad range of specialties.

Why choose The London Clinic?

  • With a dedicated International Team, we provide tailored support for patients and their families, including interpreter services, visa assistance, care coordination, and partnerships with international embassies and insurers.
  • As a registered charity, all surplus income is reinvested to continuously advance patient care, fund vital medical research, and drive clinical innovation.
  • We offer a comprehensive range of services with cutting-edge imaging, pathology, radiotherapy, operating theatres, pharmacy services and a 13-bed ICU, all based in our centrally located Harley Street buildings.
  • With access to around 800 leading consultants, we treat over 195,000 patients per year. We deliver expert care across specialties including oncology, orthopaedics, lung health, ophthalmology, kidney services, haematology, urology, women’s health, men’s health and digestive and bowel health.

Dedicated cancer care hospital

Our world-class cancer services span diagnostics, treatment, and aftercare, providing patients access to pioneering therapies such as CAR T-cell therapy, immunotherapy, robotic surgery, and molecular profiling. The Duchess of Devonshire Wing is one of the UK’s most advanced cancer centres, delivering radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and outstanding palliative care in first-class facilities. We are proud to hold the Macmillan Quality Environment Mark for Excellence.

Rapid diagnostics

Opened in 2024, our Rapid Diagnostics Centre delivers fast-track specialist care for breast health, urology, gynaecology, and dermatology, alongside GP services and a range of health assessments. We’re committed to delivering early and accurate diagnosis, with an aim to see patients within 48 hours.

At our specialist Eye Centre we offer streamlined referral pathways and subspecialist-led care across the full spectrum of the eye including cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and retinal conditions. Our consultant ophthalmologists work closely with neurologists and endocrinologists for holistic case management. Diagnostics include OCT, fluorescein angiography and same-day visual field testing.

Orthopaedics

At The London Clinic our comprehensive orthopaedic services cover hips, knees, spine, shoulders, ankles, wrists, and sports injuries. We take a multidisciplinary approach, bringing together orthopaedic surgeons, spinal specialists, rheumatologists, and physiotherapists to ensure connected, personalised care. Patients benefit from advanced diagnostics including 3T MRI, EOS imaging, CT SPECT, and discograms – many available same day – as well as access to second opinion services and minimally invasive surgical options.
