Local specialists. World leaders in healthcare. Caring for the community since 1942. As Australia’s leading private teaching hospital, Greenslopes Private Hospital is committed to providing the latest treatments and delivering first-class service to our valued patients. We have a plethora of dedicated and highly-trained local specialists – many of whom are leaders in their chosen fields. Personalised cancer service We offer a personalised approach to cancer care because we understand every patient’s journey is unique. Greenslopes Private Hospital has recently expanded its range of cancer services and the arrival of radiation oncology in April 2017 will complete the circle of care. We have been fortunate to attract leading oncologists, surgeons and physicians with a specialisation in cancer treatment. Our state-of-the-art day oncology unit – the Cyril Gilbert Cancer Centre – offers patients quality care in a modern and comfortable environment. Cutting edge research and teaching A unique offering of three key pillars – healthcare, teaching and research –complement one another and complete our full range of services. Patients regularly have access to new and emerging therapies through our award-winning clinical trials unit. This allows them to benefit from treatments which later become the gold standard; e.g. our Melanoma and Hepatitis C studies have led to treatments which are now in mainstream care. Our commitment to nurturing future specialists through a partnership with the University of Queensland is achieved through outstanding resources and facilities including a state-of-the-art simulation centre. Cardiac care Our skilled cardiac surgeons treat a range of conditions using the latest technology and techniques available, offering a one-stop-shop for our patients. Greenslopes Private Hospital provides direct access from our 24/7 Emergency Centre to our cardiovascular suites. Our 29 bed Coronary Care Unit contains private rooms for patients to recover in a comfortable, modern and peaceful environment, under the care of a dedicated team of specialist doctors and nurses. Commitment to quality The owner of Greenslopes Private Hospital, Ramsay Health Care, is the first multinational hospital group to partner with the International Consortium for Health Outcomes Measurement (ICHOM). Outcomes of cardiac patients at Greenslopes will be monitored during and after treatment through surveys and interviews, in order to help transform health care systems around the world.
