St. George Private Hospital

What St. George Private Hospital does

St George Private Hospital is a 583-employee private acute care hospital located at 1 South Street, Kogarah, NSW, Australia, wholly owned and operated by Ramsay Health Care (ASX: RHC), one of Australia's largest private hospital operators. Established in 1940, the hospital delivers a comprehensive portfolio of inpatient and outpatient services spanning bariatric surgery, cancer care, cardiac services, maternity, orthopaedics, robotic surgery, sleep studies, intensive care, and multiple surgical specialties. It serves primarily privately insured patients across Southeast Sydney and surrounding NSW, alongside a referral base of general practitioners and specialists, with revenue derived from private health insurance, Medicare, and out-of-pocket patient payments.

The hospital's clinical infrastructure centres on advanced surgical robotics, specifically the da Vinci Xi Robot for general surgery and the Stryker Mako Robot for orthopaedic joint replacement, supported by on-site Ramsay Pharmacy (open seven days) and the Ramsay Health Plus allied health network. It operates a dedicated Clinical Trials Unit that has run international early-phase medical oncology studies for over a decade, a Cancer Care Navigation Service coordinating multidisciplinary treatment, and a Bariatric Surgery Centre of Excellence performing more than 1,400 procedures per year, the highest annual volume of any Australian hospital. Cancer care delivery extends through a partnership with St George Public Hospital under the St George Cancer Care Centre, and the facility holds Specialised Networked Hospital status for gynaecological cancer from Cancer Institute NSW.

Distribution is dominated by direct hospital services delivered at the single Kogarah campus, supplemented by a structured GP referral network including GP Education programs, Clinical Updates, Practice Meet and Greet sessions, and GP Direct Access pathways, as well as online specialist directories and digital pre-admission via the Ramsay Health Hub. A three-stage redevelopment project is currently underway across 2026-2027 to expand capacity and strengthen patient care, with additional sub-brands including the SportsMed Weekend Clinic extending orthopaedic access into weekend hours. The hospital functions as an operating facility within the Ramsay Health Care group rather than an independent entity.
