About us
At Fairfield Independent Hospital, we offer modern facilities and high quality private healthcare for patients in St Helens, Merseyside and the wider Northwest region.
From the moment you arrive, you will be greeted by our friendly team, who are here to support you throughout your visit and ensure you feel safe, comfortable and well cared for.
We provide a wide range of services including orthopaedic surgery, general surgery, cardiology, dermatology, plastic and cosmetic surgery, private physiotherapy, and diagnostic imaging. Our clinical support services including radiology, physiotherapy and pre assessment, allow your care to be managed smoothly from consultation through to recovery.
Outpatient facilities
Our outpatient department has 10 consulting rooms and offers flexible appointments to accommodate the needs of patients and consultants. Minor procedures, wound care and nurse led clinics are carried out in our dedicated minor treatment room.
Our radiology department provides X ray and ultrasound imaging, supported by on site access to MRI scanning and off site CT services. With your consent, we can also access imaging from other hospitals to avoid unnecessary repeat scans.
Treatment facilities
We have two modern operating theatres, both equipped with ultra clean ventilation systems, supporting a wide range of procedures including major orthopaedic surgery. A dedicated treatment area is used for laser varicose vein procedures, and our theatre recovery unit ensures safe postoperative monitoring.
We offer 28 private en suite bedrooms, all designed to provide comfort, privacy and space to recover. Many rooms overlook our gardens, and our rooftop garden provides a calm, restorative environment for patients and visitors.
Our team and standards
More than 190 staff work at Fairfield, alongside over 70 experienced consultants who choose to practise here. A resident medical officer (RMO) is available on site to support patient safety. If your care needs change, a transfer to an NHS or Circle hospital may be required — but only when absolutely necessary.
As part of Circle Health Group, and with a major refurbishment programme which began in 2025, we remain committed to delivering exceptional, personalised care for every patient who chooses Fairfield.
