Who we are:

North Bristol Private Hospital is a brand-new facility providing unrivalled, world-class, five-star surgical and patient care in Bristol designed to meet the unique needs of every individual patient who comes to see us.  This satisfies what we feel is a long-standing need in the south-west for a centre of surgical excellence.  The hospital will offer high quality, exclusive surgical treatments (predominately cosmetic surgery) of outstanding excellence in the perfect environment.

The centre possesses state-of-the-art facilities where patient and surgical needs will be mapped out in minute detail to guarantee next-level, premium care where our high standards are part of the hospital’s DNA.

When patients feel safe, listened to and comfortable, they will recover more quickly and that is why North Bristol Private Hospital will put their needs first, second and third.

North Bristol Private Hospital has a dedicated, in-house operating theatre, minor ops suite, outpatients’ facilities and inpatient ward with only three overnight beds, so each patient will be an individual rather than a number and will provide an excellent environment for surgeons and clinicians to operate.

Close to M4 junction, this allows easy access from Wales and the Midlands. We purposely ensured North Bristol Hospital is in a quiet, secluded part of the city to reduce the stress of travelling by car.
