United Hospitals
Collective name for medical schools in London, England
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
United Hospitals is the historical collective name for the medical schools in London, England. The name originally referred to Guy's Hospital and St Thomas's Hospital and their relationship prior to 1769.[1] It has since been used to describe all London medical schools, which are all part of the University of London (UoL), except the Imperial College School of Medicine which left in 2007.
In addition to inter-collegiate UoL competitions, which include all UoL colleges, the United Hospitals are engaged in an active series of sporting, and even comedy events against each other, and also at times as a united team.

For the purposes of sporting events, the Royal Veterinary College is included in the United Hospitals, as was – until the demise of both hospital and school in the early 1980s – the Royal Dental Hospital School of Dentistry. The five members also contribute to the Saving Londoners' Lives project, sending medical students to deliver emergency life support skills training in schools.
