Horder Healthcare has been committed to caring since 1954 when we were called 'The Horder Centre for Arthritis'. We've come a long way since then. Our consultants are amongst the most skilled, experienced and innovative in their field. Our staff love to work here, so it makes sense that our patient outcomes are in the top 99%.

We have grown into a multi-service healthcare provider, with hospitals in Crowborough and East Grinstead, and outreach clinics in Eastbourne and Seaford. We are committed to making a positive impact to the health of individuals and the communities in which we work.
