Our view of the service

Chartwell Private Hospital is an independently operated Diagnostic and Treatment Centre. The facility includes outpatient consulting rooms with phlebotomy services on the ground floor, and a comprehensive endoscopy unit located in the basement. The endoscopy unit provides diagnostic procedures such as colonoscopy and sigmoidoscopy, alongside a diagnostics suite. The hospital operates seven days a week, catering to both NHS and private referrals for adults aged 18 and over. A registered manager, in post for four years, oversees the hospital, which is registered for diagnostic and screening procedures as well as the treatment of disease, disorder, and injury. On 12 October 2023, the hospital was assessed with a focus on diagnostic imaging but was not given a rating. Previously, in March 2022, the hospital was evaluated across Diagnostic Imaging, Medical Care, and Outpatient services, with all three areas rated as requires Improvement. In July 2024, the hospital was reassessed in these areas, focusing on the key questions of safe and well-led. Whilst Diagnostic Imaging remained rated as requires Improvement, Outpatients and Medical Care showed improvement, achieving ratings of "Good."
