We provide unbiased information on all private hospitals and consultants for everyone in the UK to access. Use our site to learn about your chosen private practitioner, or to look for possible hospitals and consultants for your healthcare.
As the independent source of information on private healthcare in the UK, we understand that the sector can be complex, especially for those 'going private' for the first time. We believe that greater transparency and better information not only helps people make more informed choices, but also helps hospitals and consultants to improve their services.
The government gave us the task of collecting information on safety, quality and costs for private hospitals and consultants, and publishing information to support patient choice.
We are a not-for-profit organisation and we collect data from hospitals, clinics and consultants across the UK who provide day-case/in-patient private healthcare and work with them to ensure we can publish high quality information for patients. We don't edit out any patient feedback (positive or negative) to ensure our information is as transparent as possible.
We also work closely with hospitals, consultants, regulators and other public bodies to help monitor and improve standards of care.
