Southampton General Hospital — home to the Princess Anne Hospital, the Eye Unit and the specialist cardiac and neurosciences centres — sits on Tremona Road in Shirley. Our hospital taxi service moves patients, visitors and new families to and from the hospital in a calm, fixed-fare journey, whether it's a 6am admission, a late-night discharge, a dialysis run or a regular outpatient appointment.
Your driver meets you at the hospital entrance or ward drop-off, helps with bags and mobility aids and waits while you're discharged — the first 15 minutes are free, and if the discharge time moves, message us and we move the pickup at no charge. Spacious MPVs suit patients travelling with family or with crutches, frames and post-surgery luggage, all driven by DBS-checked, patient-aware drivers. We also link hospital stays with airport and cruise transfers when relatives are flying in or out to be with you.
