Second phase of revamp at BMI The London Independent Hospital underway

The final phase of works to relaunch and refurbish the outpatients department at BMI The London Independent Hospital has been completed.

The new department on the second floor of the hospital offers improved patient waiting areas and consulting rooms to meet the ever-demanding needs of private and NHS patients using the east London hospital.

The development of the outpatients department is the second phase of a three-part development plan, which has already seen £500,000 invested into the hospital in the past year with the hospital’s newly-launched physiotherapy department and gym. The new outpatient department offers improved facilities, 19 consulting rooms and bespoke facilities for specialties including cardiology, neurophysiology and gynaecology.
