About us

The Portland Scoliosis and Spinal Surgery Centre, part of HCA Healthcare UK, is the only dedicated paediatric and young adult private spinal and scoliosis unit in the UK. Based at The Portland Hospital, it offers multidisciplinary care for the prevention and treatment of paediatric young adult scoliosis and spinal conditions.

Its surgeons are supported by an expert multidisciplinary team of paediatricians, specialist spinal nurses, physiotherapists, anaesthetists, orthotists and play therapy specialists. They offer integrated surgical and non-surgical care for young patients across the entire range of spinal problems, spanning from recurring sports and trauma injuries, congenital and developmental scoliosis, to all other paediatric spinal pathologies.

It gives patients confidence in their decision making, on if and when, they should have surgery and what surgery is best for them. Its four consultant surgeons are all highly specialised in paediatric spinal surgery and care for children from birth to adulthood and beyond.
