Essex and Suffolk Elective Orthopaedic Centre

Welcome to Essex and Suffolk Elective Orthopaedic Centre

Welcome to Essex and Suffolk Elective Orthopaedic Centre (ESEOC). The centre is at Colchester Hospital.

This new centre is the largest centre of its kind in Europe. It has eight theatres, three wards and 72 inpatient beds. It has the capacity to complete around 10,000 operations each year.

The Essex and Suffolk Elective Orthopaedic Centre is solely dedicated to planned orthopaedic surgery and will not be affected by demands from the main hospital. This means fewer operations will need to be postponed and waiting times will reduce.
