Mount Vernon Treatment Centre

Mount Vernon Treatment Centre Mount Vernon Hospital has a modern Diagnostic and Treatment Centre. With its spacious and contemporary design, the Mount Vernon Treatment Centre constitutes a new two-storey building and the existing Princess Christian Unit. The new buildings house four state-of-the-art operating theatres to carry out elective surgery, plus outpatient services, a spacious waiting area and coffee shop.
Open since February 2009, the centre was built after the Trust identified a need to separate non-elective and elective surgery within the area.

History of Mount Vernon

Mount Vernon hospital evolved from a general hospital into one providing skilled and specialised services, as well as local acute (medical and surgical) services. Founded in 1860, the North London (later Mount Vernon) Hospital for Consumption and Diseases of the Chest arrived in St. Pancras. A new Mount Vernon hospital was opened at Northwood in 1904 and has since recieved a Marie Curie hospital for women cancer patients (1967) and now the Gray laboratory for cancer research.
