Description
Seacroft Hospital is located off York Road in the east of Leeds and is one of the oldest hospital sites in the city still in use

It has seen considerable investment in recent times notably with the opening of the Leeds Reproductive Medicine Centre in January 2010 creating one of the biggest such facilities anywhere in the NHS

Significant developments in renal dialysis facilities have also taken place on the site which is gradually being modernised around a central core of key services which serve local people from east Leeds and a wide surrounding area

Thanks to its accessible location the hospital is well suited to providing a wide range of day facilities

Seacroft Hospital was opened in 1904 originally serving as an infectious diseases hospital for the city This early history explains the unusually large size of the site and its rather curious layout with wards located well away from each other separated by long corridors
