Los Angeles May 21: Cedars-Sinai has opened Cedars-Sinai Clinic London, its first flagship outpatient clinic outside the U.S., marking a significant milestone in the institution’s international expansion. The launch comes as demand for private healthcare in the U.K. continues to grow, with the market now worth an estimated $13 to $14 billion annually and more than 7 million people holding private medical insurance.
The new clinic, located at 76 New Cavendish St. in London’s Harley Street Health District, will serve as a regional hub for patients in the U.K. and for global travelers, including those from the U.S. It will provide high-quality primary care, executive health and concierge medicine, while establishing an important international bridge to better coordinate care between healthcare systems in the U.K. and Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles.
“Cedars-Sinai’s newest location is designed to meet the needs of patients seeking a seamless healthcare experience from one of the top-rated academic health systems in the world,” said Sandeep Kapur, MD, medical director of Cedars-Sinai Clinic London.
Spanning four floors, the new clinic features four private exam rooms designed for in-depth, personalized consultations. Patients can also access on-site diagnostic services, including DEXA, ultrasound and ECHO machines, with access to advanced imaging and testing.
Patients who visit the clinic can access second opinions, specialty consultations and referrals to Cedars-Sinai physicians in Los Angeles. Likewise, Cedars-Sinai patients traveling to or residing in the U.K. can receive care through the clinic in London.
Cedars-Sinai created 11 new high-skilled clinical and operational roles, which will double when the clinic is at full operational mode.The clinic is designed with healing in mind. A reception area features a modern welcoming and soothing atmosphere in addition to an exclusive lounge for patients and their caregivers to relax.
Cedars-Sinai entered the U.K. in March 2025 through a strategic collaboration with Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust. The collaboration expanded access to specialty care by establishing Cedars-Sinai’s first clinical presence in London. The clinic, located at 79 Wimpole St. in the Royal Brompton & Harefield Specialist Care building, features two exam rooms.
Leaders of the new, larger clinic said its comprehensive approach will make a big difference for those who receive services.
“Cedars-Sinai Clinic London reflects our commitment to extend the high standard of care we provide to our Los Angeles and U.S. communities to patients in London and the U.K., allowing them to benefit from our personalized and innovative care,” said Peter L. Slavin, MD, president and CEO of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and Cedars-Sinai Health System.
Heitham Hassoun, MD, senior vice president and chief executive of Cedars-Sinai International, said the opening of Cedars-Sinai’s clinic in the U.K. “marks an important achievement in Cedars-Sinai’s strategic expansion to serve patients of the global healthcare community.”
Cedars-Sinai selected London as the location for the organization’s first flagship international clinic due to its role as a leading global healthcare hub, with a growing private healthcare sector and a diverse population of internationally mobile patients. The Harley Street Medical Area alone is home to thousands of clinicians and specialist services, making it the most concentrated center of private medical care in the U.K. The clinic will help meet the growing demand for private healthcare services in the U.K. and internationally.
“Whether patients begin their journey in London, Los Angeles or another place around the world, Cedars-Sinai Clinic London will allow us to foster stronger relationships with individuals who rely on our care,” said Lawrence Piro, MD, president and CEO of The Angeles Clinic and Research Institute, a Cedars-Sinai affiliate, and medical director of Cedars-Sinai International’s Global Care program. “The launch of our clinic in London shows our strong commitment to managing the care of our patients wherever they are in the world.”
Mark Kildea, CEO of the Howard de Walden Estate, landlord and long-term steward of Harley Street Health District, said the opening of the new Cedars-Sinai clinic reflects the growing demand from leading international healthcare organizations to establish a presence in the area.
“We are pleased to have Cedars-Sinai joining Harley Street Health District,” Kildea said. “This is helping to advance our shared vision for an integrated globally connected center for innovation, collaboration and whole health in the center of London.”
Cedars-Sinai International’s global footprint also includes patient referral offices in Mexico, China, Singapore, Qatar and Ecuador.
