Making Children Better
Welcome to The Portland Hospital, the UK's largest Independent Children's Hospital, devoted to caring for babies and children up to the age of 16 years.
Here at The Portland, we care for children in a happy and relaxed atmosphere which relieves their anxiety and helps them to make a speedy recovery. Our reputation is for high quality, family-centred care and our aim is that each and every child experiences this special approach during their stay. We are able to adapt our services to meet individual needs and our wish is that every child and their family will feel respected, understood, supported and involved.
The Portland Hospital is 'home' to more than 70 top paediatric related consultant specialists - the largest group of private paediatric specialists in the UK - many of whom are considered to be amongst the world's leading clinicians. Indeed, many of our specialists hold parallel senior clinical and research posts at leading NHS trust hospitals such as Great Ormond Street, Guys & St Thomas' and University College Hospital (to name but a few).
Our wider team of over 300 healthcare professionals includes specialist children's nurses, play specialists, audiologists, physiotherapists, psychologists, dieticians, occupational therapists and radiographers - all there to support our patients' treatment and recovery. There is also a 24 hour resident paediatric medical officer to ensure your child is in safe hands at all times.
