Our approach

Patients on our cardiac ward are not numbers to be quickly moved in and out so that we can get on to the next patient; they are individuals who get the care, attention and medical services they require and deserve. Our focus on our patients as people and not transactions and profits is at the core of everything we do.

During your time on our cardiac ward, a private cardiologist will look after you and ensure you get the treatment you need so that you can quickly get back to your normal life. Our luxurious surroundings in the British capital will help you to relax as we deal with your cardiac issue with the most effective treatment and get you home as soon as possible.

If you have medical insurance (e.g. Bupa, Axa PPP, Aviva), you will need to contact your insurer to get authorisation for any treatment and, in most cases, you will require a referral letter from your GP.

If you do not have a GP, then we have an in-house private GP practice that you can use. Alternatively we can suggest the most appropriate course of action for you to take, given your location and individual circumstance.

*Please note – for investigations such as X-rays and MRI’s a referral will be required. However, we may be able to arrange this for you through our on-site private GP.
