When you require treatment, we'll support you by providing a choice of specialists to treat you. To enable us to do this, you should contact us before booking or receiving any treatment. We can support you when you book the appointment with a specialist
  • Saga Countrywide Hospital List – an extensive choice of private medical facilities nationwide
  • Saga London Upgrade – hospitals in the Saga Countrywide Hospital list plus additional UK city and central London hospitals.
