About Barts and The London hospitals

Our three hospitals – St Bartholomew’s (known as Barts) by St Paul’s in the City, The Royal London in vibrant Whitechapel and The London Chest in leafy Bethnal Green – make an outstanding contribution to modern medicine. We produce some of the best clinical outcomes in the UK - evidenced by some of the highest survival rates in the NHS.

The hospitals’ specialist centres include the country’s biggest heart attack centre, leading-edge cancer specialties, one of the UK’s largest children’s hospitals and a highly successful fertility centre.

Home to London’s Helicopter Emergency Medical Services (HEMS) air ambulance, Barts and The London is also the capital’s leading trauma and emergency care centre, offering level one emergency surgical expertise that also benefits patients needing more routine procedures.
