Welcome to the Rotunda Hospital, the Maternity Hospital of Choice. As the oldest continuously operating maternity hospital in the world, and one of the busiest in Europe, we pride ourselves on respecting the individual woman’s right to choose the care pathway that suits her needs. We celebrate the fact that for over 270 years, hundreds of thousands of women have trusted the Rotunda to care for them and their babies during the precious and exciting time of pregnancy.

I firmly believe that all members of staff have their own special role in offering care and kindness to the families who have come through our door since 1745. I believe that our wonderful staff will try everyday to ensure that your experience of our hospital is the best it can be. At the Rotunda we encourage feedback on all that we do, so that we can look for opportunities to improve our services.

I hope that you will find this website a useful and easily navigated source of information to support your choices for pregnancy, neonatal and gynaecology care.
