About us

North Middlesex University Hospital NHS Trust is a medium sized District General Hospital based in Edmonton in Enfield, North London. We serve a diverse multicultural population largely from the London boroughs of Enfield and Haringey but also draw patients from Waltham Forest and Barnet. Many of our patients live in wards that are within the 5% most deprived in the UK and a large proportion of our patients were born abroad. This makes it both a fascinating and a challenging hospital to work in.

Over the last decade we have rebuilt almost all of the hospital and now have facilities that we are proud to work in. We employ just over 3,000 staff, more than half of whom live locally. We encourage apprenticeships from the local community and work closely with our local Health Watch.

The hospital provides a full range of elective and non-elective secondary care services, though it is highly emergency driven with a very busy A&E department. The Trust also has specialist haematological, HIV, sickle cell, chemotherapy and radiotherapy services. All are supported by a full range of investigative services including an imaging department that boasts 3-Tesla MRI and 64-slice CT scanners.
