Both Priory Wellbeing Centre and Bristol Hospital are esteemed Private Treatment Services, dedicated to delivering accessible and compassionate mental health care. We take pride in our commitment to supporting individuals on their mental health journey. With two exceptional locations in Bristol, each offering a unique environment and a diverse range of services, we aim to provide the highest quality of care and support to those seeking help with their mental health.
Bristol Hospital (Stapleton, M32):
Our Grade II listed hospital building is set in extensive grounds, just off the M32 and less than three miles from the centre of Bristol, with free on-site parking. We offer 86 beds spread over eight wards, providing a wide range of services, including Psychiatric Intensive Care (PICU), eating disorders, acute care, rehab, and recovery. Our collaborative environment fosters opportunities to gain experience in various services.
You will also have the opportunity to hold clinics at our satellite clinic – Bristol Park Clinic.
Bristol Priory Wellbeing Centre (Aztec West Business Park):
Our outpatient clinic is strategically located for easy accessibility, with excellent connections to the M4 and M5 motorways. We offer comprehensive services, including 1:1 therapy, group therapy, and Psychiatry appointments. Free on-site parking is available for both staff and visitors.
Opportunity:

This VC post will also have practising privileges to admit to our 9 bed private ward which has access to a separate daily therapy programme for addictions and general psychiatry. On the private ward, there are weekly MDT ward rounds and a separate weekly review which the VC would be expected to attend. There are other VCs currently admitting to the private ward which is also supported by Specialty Doctors.
