Barts and The London NHS Trust's photostream  

Barts and The London is one of Britain’s leading healthcare providers. Our world-renowned hospitals – St Bartholomew’s (Barts) in the City, The Royal London in Whitechapel and The London Chest in Bethnal Green - are home to world-class specialist centres, from cancer and digestive diseases to trauma and a leading children’s hospital.

Barts and The London is undergoing the largest and most complex hospital redevelopment project in the world. The £1 billion programme will replace many of the hospitals’ ageing buildings with state-of-the-art healthcare facilities to rival the best in Europe. When it opens in 2012, The Royal London will be Britain’s biggest new hospital, providing general and specialist services to the population of east London and beyond. The historic buildings of Barts, Britain’s oldest hospital, are being refurbished, alongside a major new building, to create a Cancer and Cardiac Centre of Excellence.

Our hospitals have a high concentration of complex cases, which means that we have some of Britain's leading specialists on our teams. Their expertise benefits all of our patients, including those coming in for more routine procedures.

Our daily mission is to bring excellence to life - to give patients the best possible care so that they can live better, fuller, longer lives.
