We are pleased the judges recognised the investments made in the company and the hard work and dedication everyone at Spire Healthcare gives to providing high quality patient care. I hope this highlights to the local people of Liverpool that they have access to a high quality, award-winning hospital, right on their door-step.”

The judges said: “In a very tight category Spire just get the award due to their recent numerous and quantifiable measures underpinning their efforts to ensure service excellence.”
