11 September 2026

Spire Cambridge Lea Hospital has been rated ‘Good’ overall by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) following a comprehensive assessment carried out on 11 February 2026.

The hospital received ‘Good’ ratings across all five key areas assessed by the CQC: Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive and Well-led. The assessment covered surgery, diagnostic imaging and outpatient services, with all three services rated ‘Good’.

Inspectors reported high quality care and treatment with patients treated with kindness and compassion. Feedback was positive and patients spoke highly of the care they had received. 

Leaders had sound oversight of the quality of service being delivered through effective governance and risk management systems. The service had a good learning culture and staff and patients could raise concerns.

Nayab Haider, Hospital Director at Spire Cambridge Lea Hospital, said:

"We are delighted that the CQC has recognised the hard work, dedication and professionalism of our colleagues with this 'Good' rating."

"Every member of our team is committed to delivering outstanding care and the best possible experience for our patients. This report reflects the compassion, expertise and innovation that underpin everything we do, and we are incredibly proud of the achievements highlighted by the inspectors."

98% of Spire Healthcare's inspected hospitals and clinics are rated ‘Good’, ‘Outstanding’ or the equivalent by health inspectors in England, Scotland and Wales.
