Important information on getting here

The Trust is based on two sites in South East London.  Before setting out please ensure you know which site you need to come to:

• If you are a patient, the address and contact details of the site and department you are coming to will be on your appointment letter.
  
• If you are visiting a patient, please check which ward they are on and the relevant visiting hours.  If you are unsure, please call main reception on 020 7188 7188.
  
• If you are visiting a member of staff, please arrange for them to meet you at the main reception desk of the hospital concerned.
  
• Both hospitals are located in the congestion charging zone of London and parking is very limited.  We urge visitors to use public transport.
