A new private surgical centre with operating theatres, inpatient beds and around 35 new jobs is planned for Campbelltown as Ramsay Health Care expands its footprint in South West Sydney.
The $26.5 million Ramsay Surgical Centre Campbelltown is expected to open in mid-2028 within the Macarthur Health Precinct, giving patients greater access to specialist surgery closer to home.
The purpose-built centre will feature three operating theatres, including a dedicated procedure room, with capacity for a fourth theatre as demand grows.
It will also include 12 inpatient beds and provide surgery across orthopaedics, general surgery, endoscopy, gynaecology, ear, nose and throat, urology and plastic surgery.
Around 35 jobs are expected to be created initially, including positions for nurses, allied health professionals and other healthcare workers.
Ramsay’s National Growth & Partnerships Manager Claire Thurwood said the investment responded to Campbelltown’s rapidly growing population.
“As our community grows, we want more patients to be able to access the surgical care they need locally, without having to travel further across Sydney,” Thurwood said.
NSW Government projections estimate Campbelltown’s population will increase by more than 45,000 people between 2021 and 2041, placing increasing demand on local health services.
The centre will form part of the Macarthur Health Precinct, developed by Vital Health Care Property Trust, where Stage 1 has already opened with the GenesisCare Integrated Cancer & Health Centre.
“The centre has been designed to support a broad range of surgical care, with modern operating theatres and inpatient facilities giving our specialists greater flexibility in how they care for their patients,” Thurwood said.
She said the centre would complement existing health services while increasing choice for patients across the region.
“This is a significant investment in the future of healthcare in Campbelltown and will give patients more options to access specialist surgical care locally,” she said.
“We’re looking forward to welcoming our first patients in 2028 and providing another option for high-quality surgical care in South West Sydney.”
