About Barts and The London hospitals

Barts and The London hospitals produce some of the best clinical outcomes in the UK - evidenced by one of the best survival rate records in the NHS.

A recent national report produced by Dr Foster shows that our three hospitals – St Bartholomew’s (known as Barts) by St Paul’s in the City, The Royal London in Whitechapel and The London Chest in Bethnal Green – continue to have an excellent survival rate record - currently within the top 20 trusts in England.

The hospitals’ full portfolio of specialist centres includes the country’s biggest heart attack centre, leading edge cancer specialties, and one of the UK’s largest children’s hospitals, as well as our highly successful fertility centre.

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