Information of the Hospital


The University Hospitals Leuven (UZ Leuven) is one of the largest hospitals in the country. Its 9 329 dedicated employees form the heart of the campuses Gasthuisberg, Pellenberg, Sint-Pieter and Sint-Rafaël. The combination of their expertise and motivation guarantees optimal patient services. In 2017, the University Hospitals Leuven registered 58 607 admissions, 110 708 people went to the single-day admissions and 712 405 people came to the consultations.

The progressive infrastructure of the Gasthuisberg campus provides a fitting environment for high-tech medicine. This health centre was built using a revolutionary new concept: the walls were built around the functions, not vice versa. This way, the building complex seamlessly integrates all medical and paramedical disciplines.
