St Mark’s is a centre of excellence offering individualised, exceptional, multidisciplinary care for people with inflammatory bowel disease.
The Lennard-Jones Intestinal Rehabilitation Unit (IRU) at St Mark’s Hospital is a specialist centre dedicated to the assessment and management of patients with severe intestinal failure.
St Mark’s has pioneered investigation and treatment of haemorrhoids, anal fistula, anal fissure, incontinence and problems of bowel function since it was founded in 1835.
Early diagnosis is a powerful way to improve cancer survival. Investigative techniques need to be performed well to maximise performance and tolerability.
St Mark’s Hospital has been pioneering new surgical treatments for nearly 200 years. The innovations developed aim to improve recovery for patients and reduce complications.
St Mark’s already offers complex treatments for patients with advanced and recurrent bowel cancer and is one of a handful of units across the UK offering complex interventions.
Quality Improvement is a formal approach to the analysis of performance and systematic efforts to improve it.
