St George’s Hospital is one of twelve adult and children major trauma centres in the UK. It is part of the South West London and Surrey Trauma Network, which is currently one of the top performing trauma networks in the UK.

St George's Hospital is a designated regional trauma centre for children (and adults) with serious and life-threatening injuries. New-born babies requiring surgery and intensive care are referred from across the UK.
