About us
Medway NHS Foundation Trust is the largest acute trust and district general hospital in Kent. We have a proud history, originating in 1905 when a Royal Naval Hospital was opened on the site. Just over a century later, Medway NHS Foundation Trust was the first hospital in Kent to achieve Foundation Trust status. We continue to expand and modernise the array of services on offer to the people of the Medway towns, Swale and the wider West Kent region.
Medway is an Associated University Hospital with strong links to the Guy's, King's and St Thomas' Medical Schools and the new Kent and Medway Medical School.
The Urology Department has an established track record in innovation. It was the first to introduce a dedicated Endo-urology service for over 25 years, open radical prostatectomy service was established over 20 years ago and neobladder reconstruction after radical cystectomy. With the advent of laparoscopic urological surgery, the department was the first to introduce laparoscopic radical prostatectomies in Kent and the more recent introduction of daVinci robot. This has led to substantial patient benefits with significantly reduced hospital stay and early return to full recovery in the community.
