Phoenix Hospital Chelmsford, part of Phoenix Hospital Group, occupies a tranquil setting on Essex Healthcare Park, just minutes from the A12, and is home to our venous duplex ultrasound service. Springfield Hospital belongs to Ramsay Health Care, one of the world's leading private hospital groups, and offers private en-suite rooms, comprehensive diagnostic imaging and a resident medical officer on site around the clock. Both provide free parking and a calm, welcoming environment, placing expert vein care within easy reach of patients across Essex.
