The Meriden Hospital is a private hospital run by Circle Health.[1] It is situated adjacent to the University Hospital Coventry, Walsgrave, Coventry, England.

History[edit]

The hospital, which was designed to have 48 beds and was built at a cost of £25 million, opened in February 2006.[2] In April 2013 it was accused of instructing doctors to delay NHS operations to encourage patients to go private instead.[3]
