About UsThe forefront of healthcare
Johannesburg Surgical Hospital exists to deliver specialised, high-quality surgical care at a cost that makes sense, and to do it with some warmth.
People and technology, in that order
We keep investing in equipment, but the hospital's edge is its people: 36 specialists who chose to practise here, and staff who care about how a patient's day goes.
Our values are respect for patients, the pursuit and sharing of knowledge, and honesty, integrity and compassion. The mission behind them is short: the highest quality of care, for the best quality of life.

- Align our system with the medical aids and future-proof for National Health Insurance through innovative pricing and service models
Ready for the work
JSH has the resources, the expertise and the commitment to be the first choice for specialised surgical and rehabilitative care. The facility can take patients from across the country and the continent, and private surgical care is what it was built for.
Many procedures can now be done with less invasive techniques. Our teams focus on a handful of surgical disciplines, which shows up as better service, shorter stays and steadier quality. It also makes staffing and supply simpler to run well.
Cost-effectiveness, dignity and healing are what we hold ourselves to. A hospital that feels compassionate gets better outcomes, and we've built for that.
More than double the average number of surgical beds per hospital.
Including two hybrid theatres and a dedicated interventional radiology suite.
