Guy’s is home to the largest dental school in Europe and a £160 million Cancer Centre opened in 2016. It is also home to Evelina London Children’s Hospital which provides specialist services across south east England including cardiac, renal and critical care services. Our community services include health visiting, school nursing and support for families of children with long-term conditions.

Our adult community services teams deliver care at the heart of the local communities we serve, working in partnership with GPs, local authorities and other healthcare and voluntary sector organisations.
