(218)

Burnside Hospital is a leading not-for-profit private hospital providing high-quality, patient-centered care in a compassionate and supportive environment. For over 70 years, the South Australian community has trusted in our ability to deliver an unrivalled patient experience. We are committed to clinical excellence, world class innovation, and personalised care. Our experienced team of healthcare professionals is recognised for providing advanced care in the areas of surgical, medical, maternity, and diagnostic services. It is our warm, community-focused approach and our commitment to best practice that makes us the hospital of choice for patients, doctors, and healthcare providers. OUR TWO LOCATIONS
Burnside Hospital provides exceptional healthcare in modern facilities at two locations:

Burnside Hospital Toorak Gardens
Established in the heart of Adelaide’s eastern suburbs, our flagship hospital offers 76 beds, five operating theatres, a dedicated maternity unit, a high dependency unit, and a range of specialist and surgical services. With a team-based focus on patient safety, comfort, and best practice clinical care, our Toorak Gardens location continues to provide a range of advanced healthcare services for South Australians. Burnside Hospital Stepney
Since 2023 our Stepney location (formerly Sportsmed Hospital) has delivered a range of specialist outpatient and diagnostic services so that our patients have convenient access to comprehensive medical care. A TRADITION OF EXCELLENCE // A FUTURE OF INNOVATION
As a not-for-profit hospital we reinvest in our facilities, technology, and people to continue to provide the best possible medical and surgical care. Our highly skilled teams work together to uphold our values of integrity, respect and excellence, making a meaningful difference in our patients lives. Burnside Hospital is more than a healthcare provider—we are a trusted partner in your health journey, ensuring your faith in our care today and for generations to come.

We’re delighted to advise that our $65 million Health Precinct has been awarded official planning consent by the State Commission Assessment Panel, paving the way for development to commence.

It’s a hugely exciting milestone for Burnside Hospital and our community – delivering more day surgery capacity, increased cancer care, diagnostic imaging, pathology, fertility services and more.

It’s all part of our commitment to meet the growing demand for quality health care and ensure Burnside Hospital is here for our community for decades to come.
