About Us
West Midlands Hospital is one of the West Midland's leading private hospitals set in acres of pleasant grounds at Colman Hill, Halesowen, ten miles from Birmingham City Centre. Operating since 1988 the hospital has 29 private bedrooms, all with en-suite facilities.
By investing in advanced medical technology, the hospital offers a wide range of treatments and services. We have two theatres one with Lamina flow, and cover a wide range of surgical specialities; these include Orthopaedics, General surgery, Gynaecology, ENT, Ophthalmology, Cosmetic and urology. We also have a separate endoscopy suite.
In September 2020, we opened a designated off-site ambulatory care unit with an operating theatre and two recovery bays, located less than 5 miles from the West Midlands hospital to enable us to offer more services to our patients. This role is a key role in ensuring the success of multi-site theatre working.

We care.
It’s more than what we do, it’s who we are. Everything we do is about striving to deliver the best care. And it's a belief that's as true today as it was when we welcomed our first patients in 1964.
