In addition, patients at Schoen Clinic London will have access to The London Clinic’s extensive network of leading consultants across other medical specialties.
“I believe that this partnership agreement between The London Clinic and the Schoen Clinic London will benefit our leading specialist consultants and their patients, who will have fast access to our comprehensive range of services,” says Al Russell, chief executive of The London Clinic. “Both hospitals have shared values and a focus on providing excellence in healthcare outcomes.”
