Bringing the best outcomes to our patients

Macquarie University Hospital offers a new era in Australian healthcare.

Based on leading international university hospitals, our 144-bed facility fully integrates clinical practice with research and education.

Cancellation of elective surgery excluding Emergency, Category 1 and urgent Category 2 surgery

The NSW Government has issued a directive that non-urgent elective surgery will be temporarily suspended across NSW for critical private hospital operators as of Monday, 23 August.

Only emergency surgery, Category 1 elective surgeries (needed within 30 days) and urgent Category 2 elective surgery (if it is assessed that patients could deteriorate and require an emergency admission within 30 days) will continue until further notice.

Decisions on the category of patients are at the discretion of their specialist. If you are considering or are scheduled for surgery, please discuss your procedure with your specialist.

The Government has made this difficult decision due to the strain that the current COVID-19 outbreak has placed on the NSW health system. This decision will ensure resources are available to manage critical health care needs across the State.

Patient-centred care

We put our patients first. Throughout every aspect of Macquarie University Hospital, our medical and professional staff strive to bring the best to our patients, by following three simple aims: to heal, learn and discover.

Our patient’s health, safety and comfort are at the centre of everything we do. We have established an integrated model of care where services are streamlined and available ‘under one roof’.

Our wards and theatres are equipped with the latest technology and from the moment patients arrive until the time that they depart, they are looked after by our outstanding nursing, allied health, medical and ancillary staff.

We're committed to providing high-quality healthcare services and achieving optimum customer satisfaction.
