We are proud to be a Major Trauma Centre, and to care for people needing the help of many different specialties including tertiary vascular, obstetric, maxillofacial, plastic surgery, renal transplantation, haematology and oncology as well as those with complex medical or surgical problems.
Our team is diverse and inclusive and we develop staff of all levels to reach their potential, offering opportunities for rotation to ED or other ICU areas, secondment to research and outreach teams and support with management & leadership as well as training and further specialist education.

St George’s Hospital also hosts the St George’s, University of London and Kingston University Faculty of Health and Social Care Sciences, which is responsible for training a wide range of healthcare professionals from across the region.
