The hospital is a designated regional cancer centre and provides a wide range of specialist services not usually found in smaller district general hospitals including neurosurgery, cardiac surgery and upper abdominal cancer surgery (liver, pancreas, biliary, stomach and gullet cancers). It is currently rated as a high performing three star NHS trust, it is anticipated that the trust will apply for Foundation Trust status within the next year.

The general surgical department is a 130 bed unit comprising six wards and the surgical high dependency unit.

Ward E8 is our dedicated Upper Gastro-Intestinal surgical ward, where we manage most of our patients having major upper abdominal surgery. This is a well motivated ward with excellent levels of specialist skills and experience among the nursing staff. The nurses and doctors on the upper GI unit work as a close team with a high level of senior, nursing and surgical input for patients requiring specialist care.

Operating theatres: between the group we have a total of ten half day operating sessions at SGH per week, six of these are dedicated to upper abdominal surgery and four to urgent and emergency cases.
