About Us

NHS Lothian provides a comprehensive range of primary, community-based and acute hospital services for the populations of Edinburgh, Midlothian, East Lothian and West Lothian. We also provide some services for patients in the Borders and in Fife and are a national centre of expertise for some specialties provided to people across Scotland.  NHS Lothian has an annual budget of £1.6 billion and employs approximately 26,000 staff.

The Lothian Region has the second largest residential population in Scotland, with more than 850,000 people, and its population is growing faster than anywhere else in Scotland. NHS Lothian also provides services for patients in Borders and Fife, as well as a number of specialist services for patients across Scotland.

Across all areas of care, we seek to provide specialist and general services fairly and efficiently and to the highest standards.

At NHS Lothian we believe that working together across all areas of the health service is the best way to provide care for patients. Through an innovative programme of modernisation, we have developed a single integrated health system, with patients and staff benefiting from a more streamlined, patient-centred structure.
