Tunbridge Wells Homeopathic Hospital

Tunbridge Wells Homeopathic Hospital in 2009

Tunbridge Wells Homeopathic Hospital was a former NHS hospital in Tunbridge Wells, England, that specialized in homeopathic treatments.

It was founded in 1902 by the merger of a group of homeopathic dispensaries in Bristol into a single premises[1] at 41 Church Road, Tunbridge Wells.

The hospital, then one of four homeopathic hospitals operated by the NHS, was closed in 2009 following a drop in referrals and a review by the West Kent Primary Care Trust of funding of homeopathy.[2][3]
