About Us
Originally Pinehill was a large house, but has had numerous extensions. Whilst it is not purpose built it is popular because of the location. We have 37 beds which includes 25 inpatient beds over two floors and a 12-bedded day ward. We have four operating theatres with individual anaesthetic rooms and a recovery area. Other facilities we have include general x-ray, ultrasound, two outpatient treatment rooms and a physiotherapy gymnasium.Our physiotherapy team generally see all of the post op follow ups for the orthopaedic surgeons unless the Consultant identifies a clinical concern which requires personal follow up. We have recently invested in ensuring that there are a high number of suitably trained orthopaedic scrub nurses to support the increased demand for these services. All of our current Orthopaedic Surgeons have posts in the NHS as well as private practicing privileges at Pinehill.
