Hygeia Hospital

Hygeia Hospital is a 450-bed private tertiary care hospital located in Marousi, northern Athens, Greece, and is the flagship facility of the Hellenic Healthcare Group (HHG), one of the largest private hospital operators in southeast Europe. Founded in 1970 and substantially expanded over subsequent decades, Hygeia holds Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation, making it one of a small number of Greek private hospitals recognised against an internationally validated quality standard. The hospital provides a broad range of sub-specialty services including cardiology and cardiac surgery, oncology, orthopaedics, neurosurgery, ophthalmology, and spinal surgery. Its oncology department operates under the Mitera-Hygeia Cancer Center umbrella, delivering medical oncology, surgical oncology, and radiation therapy. An international patients department coordinates care for overseas visitors, offering English-language support, medical record review, pre-arrival cost estimation, and assistance with travel logistics. Pricing is not published publicly and is provided by the international department on a case-by-case basis following clinical assessment. Hygeia Hospital is situated approximately 12 kilometres north of central Athens and is accessible from Athens International Airport in under 40 minutes by road, which is a practical consideration for patients travelling for elective treatment.
