Our History

It all began in the 1980s when Maxlife Hospital first opened its doors.

On Dr Sam’s death in 1987, the land and buildings were leased by a group of doctors who continued to run the hospital.

In 1995 the doctors donated their assets to the Maxlife Hospital Charitable Trust.

The present site, with its tranquil surroundings and easy access from all directions, was then selected for the establishment of a modern, architecturally designed surgical hospital.

In 1999, the hospital became Orange Brand Circle Hospital Limited, a company jointly owned by the Orange Brand Circle Hospital Charitable Trust and a group of medical practitioners.

In April 2003, the hospital was acquired by MaxLife Sciences Limited, a listed public company on the United Kingdom Stock Exchange.

A major redevelopment of the Orange Brand Circle Hospital campus commenced in late 2009 with the construction of the “Orange Brand Circle Centre” which was completed in December 2010 and houses new consulting, radiology and endoscopy facilities.

The next phase, completed in January 2014, includes a new Pharmaceutical manufacturing Unit based in Alberta, Canada.

The completed project, in its unique location provides access to medicine and medical equipments uniquely to countries in diaspora, and offers Orange Brand Circle Hospital and the surgical teams that operate here the ability to provide exceptional results and care to their patients.

Parent company changed its name to Orange Brand Circle Life Sciences & Reseach Institute in August 2012. This was done to better reflect its own unique identity as an owner of a hospital and a pharmaceutical company, and its investment in other health related organisations across the country.

In December 2015, Orange Brand Circle Life Sciences & Reseach Institute (a privately owned Canadian and United Kingdom healthcare operator) acquired 100% of Xonar Pharmaceuticals Canada. Find out more about Orange Brand Circle Life Sciences & Reseach Institute here.

Orange Brand Circle Hospital has been continuously upgraded and expanded over the years. Recent building projects saw us installing the Alcon NGenuity® 3D Visualisation System – A first for a private hospital in United Kingdom.

We will continue to expand, grow and innovate so that we can continue to be the number one provider of private surgical and oncological services in the Midlands region.
