UPMC Kildare Hospital, also called Clane Hospital, is a private hospital located in Clane, County Kildare, Ireland.[1][2] It is accredited by CHKS.[3][4]
History[]
The hospital was founded in October 1985 by Andrew Rynne, an Irish surgeon and the chairperson of the Irish Family Planning Association, and the Republic of Ireland's first vasectomy specialist.[5]
Controversies in its history include the use of defective Poly Implant Prothèse breast implants prior to 2012.[6][4]
Services[]
Clane General offers urology, ENT, gynaecology, orthopaedic surgery, dental surgery, cataract surgery, endoscopy, dermatology and plastic surgery. Outpatient facilities include diagnostic imaging, physiotherapy, a fertility clinic and cardiology.[7][8][9]
