Royal Prince Alfred Hospital
The Royal Prince Alfred Hospital (RPA) is one of Australia's most prestigious tertiary referral hospitals, with a reputation for excellence and innovation in healthcare. RPA is part of the Sydney Local Health District's network of hospitals. It is the University of Sydney's primary teaching hospital.
RPA has been a respected supplier of healthcare since its founding in 1882, with the belief that its doors are always open to those who need it.
When the RPA Show, a top-rated television show, brought the tales of our patients into the living rooms of thousands of Australian and international families, RPA became a household name.
RPA serves more patients in NSW than any other public hospital and offers a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic services. Every day, around 1,000 patients are treated at RPA.
RPA began as a 146-bed hospital on Missenden Road in 1882, with the first patients arriving in 1883. RPA is credited with generating many of the country's finest clinicians, according to its long history of medical innovation and leadership. Staff efforts in patient care, teaching, research, and support services have earned it a national and worldwide reputation for quality, making it one of the state's premier tertiary referral hospitals.
