HCA Healthcare in the UK
HCA Healthcare has been providing medical services for over 50 years. It began with a small hospital in Nashville, USA, founded by physicians—Parkview Hospital. In 1995, HCA entered the UK healthcare market and established a world-class network with more than 30 facilities across London and Manchester, with its latest project, The Harborne Hospital, opening in Birmingham in 2024.
Today, HCA is the world's largest private healthcare provider and one of the leading private healthcare institutions in the UK. Since its founding in 1968, its guiding principle has always been patient-centered, directing its operations every day. Whatever patients need, it offers compassionate care—from clinical research, primary care (including private general practitioner services), outpatient and day treatment, to complex and emergency care.
In the UK, HCA Healthcare UK is the only private hospital group with the highest level of intensive care beds across all its facilities, actively embracing new challenges in innovation and clinical care. Importantly, HCA's scale allows it to invest in a network of facilities focused on specialization. Whether in the UK or the USA, networks composed of experts in their respective fields provide patients with high-quality care.

We provide coordinated care for patients through our network of outstanding facilities in London and Manchester. We work with over 3,000 carefully selected specialists, each at the forefront of clinical excellence in their respective fields.

Caring for you like family
HCA Healthcare was founded in 1968 by a cardiologist who believed in truly patient-centred care. This ethos of compassion, respect and inclusion is at the heart of HCA UK.
At HCA UK we cared for over 300,000 patients in 2021
We treat our patients like we would want our own loved ones to be treated.
