Welcome to The Ridgeway Hospital
We have an excellent reputation for providing rapid access to diagnosis and treatment for routine and complex conditions.
Our hospitals remain open and treating patients. We are working hard to keep our services running as normal, and have added additional safety measures and checks to help protect our patients and staff. You can continue to book new consultations with us, and we look forward to welcoming you into our hospital.
Please note that we have not relaxed our rules at the Ridgeway and so masks are still to be worn, visitors are not allowed, and we ask that Patients attend all appointment's alone unless otherwise agreed with the hospital in advance.
Find out more about additional safety measures we've implemented and what to expect when visiting hospital.
Please note that if you have an appointment at The Ridgeway Hospital over the next few weeks, there are road works planned by a housing contractor, effective from 4th April 2022 – 30th May 2022.
During this time access to the Ridgeway Hospital will only be from the North side of the Hospital via Moormead Road. This will consist of single lane traffic in places and so please drive carefully.
If you are arriving to the hospital via Marlborough Road in Wroughton, as you get to the roundabout which joins onto Moormead Road, access is denied. Please follow the diversions that will take you round in a loop and bring you to the hospital via the North side of the hospital (via Perry's Lane).
We advise that you allow additional time for your journey to the Hospital and sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause
The Ridgeway Hospital has 50 beds. All patient rooms offer the privacy and comfort of en-suite facilities, TV and telephone, Equipped to a high standard, the rooms provide a relaxed and comfortable environment, conducive to rapid recovery and convalescence.
The Ridgeway Hospital is home to an Imaging Suite that offers a full and extensive range of services, including a 1.5T MRI Scanner, and a CT scanning facility.
The physiotherapy department incorporates fitness, health screening and wellbeing, along with a large, well equipped gymnasium and hydrotherapy pool.
The hospital has three theatres, one of which is home to a Stryker Nav Suite which is a completely integrated computer assisted surgery solution with a ceiling-mounted camera that tracks instrumentation.
In 2021 we refurbished our Endoscopy Suite to offer our patients a dedicated endoscopy facility in a calm and welcoming atmosphere, with patient privacy at the forefront of its design.
The Ambulatory Day Care Suite which we opened in January 2022, has been developed in line with modern healthcare needs, whereby techniques have improved so much that people who might overwise have needed an overnight stay after their surgery can now be offered aftercare treatment in a comfortable environment, before returning home the same day.
Our facilities at the hospital enable our consultants to undertake a wide range of procedures from routine investigations to complex surgery. This specialist expertise is supported by caring and professional medical staff, with dedicated nursing teams, and a Resident Medical Officer on duty 24 hours a day, providing care within a friendly and comfortable environment.
The Ridgeway offers free parking for patients. We recommend that you allow more time to find a space during peak hours due to high demand on our hospital at this time.
