Our values
Our goal is to provide outstanding healthcare, ensuring that every patient receives the highest quality care tailored to their unique needs. Our values are the pillars that support that mission.

Care and compassion
We treat every patient how we would like to be treated, and we work with people who believe in this too. Rapid access to diagnostics and specialist appointments are just some of the ways we’re reassuring patients that they’re in safe hands.

Respect and trust
We're an inclusive organisation that values the expertise of diverse teams. We understand that bringing the right people together can improve patient care, and that successful collaboration happens within teams that respect and trust one another.

Clinical excellence
We’re proud to be at the forefront of medical innovation. We continuously invest in the latest technologies and treatments to provide cutting-edge care. Our commitment to excellence drives us to constantly improve and adopt best practices in healthcare.

Better together
We're committed to providing outstanding care. By creating an environment in which people can take ownership and instigate change, we’re ensuring our service can evolve and adapt to patient needs. We value clinical excellence and safe working practices.
TRUSTED BY THE NHS
What makes us truly unique is our ownership: we are the first fully operational private hospital in the UK wholly owned by an NHS Trust - the Royal United Hospital Bath NHS Foundation Trust.
This means all surplus funds generated by Sulis Hospital are reinvested directly into the NHS, supporting public healthcare delivery and enhancing capacity for NHS patients. It's a rare model where private healthcare directly strengthens the public system.
Purpose-Driven Care
At its core, Sulis exists to make healthcare better for everyone, not just those who can afford it. The hospital delivers:
- Improved access to diagnostics, specialist appointments and surgery.
- Collaborative care between the NHS and private professionals.
- A patient-first ethos driven by values of respect, compassion and clinical excellence.
Reimagining Health System Capacity
Sulis is not just a hospital - it's a strategic health partner for the South West. Through collaborations with regional NHS Trusts, it helps increase surgical and diagnostic capacity, reduce waiting lists and support elective care recovery - blending the efficiency of private care with the equity of public service.
This is private healthcare with public purpose - and a bold vision of what a truly socially conscious health system can look like.

MISSION
We are dedicated to enhancing the quality of people’s lives through the provision of exceptional care. Everything we do helps to make healthcare better for everyone.
- We put patients and their safety above all else.
- We believe in nurturing our teams to be the best they can be.
- We aim to bring real value to our community.
- As a leading private hospital 100% owned by an NHS Trust, we’re proud to be reinvesting back into the NHS.
