Why The Lister Hospital?

 

Part of the HCA International group of award-winning private hospitals in London.

 

The Lister Hospital aims to provide world-class healthcare in the heart of Chelsea, with the warmest welcome and the highest quality and choice of healthcare.

 

The Hospital enjoys one of Chelsea’s most prominent sites – next to the world-famous Chelsea Flower Show and overlooking the River Thames. Always a seat of medical excellence, The Lister Hospital became known due to its founder’s pioneering work in developing modern-day antiseptics and latterly as an internationally-renowned centre for fertility treatments.

Continuing investment

The Hospital continues to invest in state-of-the-art facilities, departments and medical teams. Whether you are local to Chelsea or are one of our many visiting patients from overseas, when you walk through our doors we hope you’ll be impressed by the quality of our medical facilities and reassured by the care and competence of our teams.

 

Throughout The Lister Hospital you will see evidence of this investment. We have four operating theatres including two that are equipped with ultra-clean ventilation for specialised orthopaedic surgery. For improved diagnostics we have introduced digital mammography for breast examination as well as a powerful new generation MRI scanner. Recently we opened a £1m Endoscopy Suite to compliment the services of our Gastroenterology Centre. For more information, please go to our Facilities and Services page.

 

With our new hospital-wide IT infrastructure, doctors can now instantly review patient scans and x-rays online. Our wireless network will enable nurses to use portable ‘PDA’ devices to enter patient data directly from the bedside as a failsafe system of ensuring correct medication. This vision of achieving excellence is a team approach – shared by all our nursing, clinical and support staff at The Lister Hospital – and is reflected in quality outcomes, which are amongst the best in the private sector.
