Royal Brompton & Harefield NHS Foundation Trust is the only specialist heart and lung provider delivering services to patients of all ages in the UK.  Our foetal cardiologists can perform scans at just 12 weeks, when a baby’s heart valve is just over a millimetre in size, and our clinical teams regularly treat patients well into their 90s.

 

Over the years our experts have been responsible for several major medical breakthroughs - performing the first successful heart and lung transplant in Britain, implanting the first coronary stent, founding the largest centre for cystic fibrosis in the UK and pioneering intricate heart surgery for new-born infants.

 

We are the leading UK provider of respiratory care and are national leaders in the specialists areas of paediatric cardiorespiratory care, treatment of congenital heart disease, and cystic fibrosis.

 

Our patients are supported by adult intensive care units at both hospitals and a dedicated paediatric intensive care unit at Royal Brompton.
