Erasme Hospital is the academic medical center of the "Université Libre de Bruxelles" (Brussels, Belgium). It originally opened its doors in 1977 and employs around 3 000 staff, who provide treatment for about 260 000 outpatients and 26 000 inpatients in 858 beds each year. 

Our mission is to provide superior health care, ever mindful of each patient's dignity and individuality, and to deliver services in a way that meets the needs and expectations of our patients and their families. 

While the majority of patients are recruited in Brussels and in the central provinces of Belgium, the Hôpital Erasme maintains a national and international reputation for clinical practice, research and education. Patients from all parts of Belgium and abroad make use of our highly specialized facilities. Teachers and researchers at the Hôpital Erasme have a long tradition of collaboration with colleagues throughout Belgium and other countries. 

Since 2021, as part of an historic agreement between the City of Brussels and the Université Libre de Bruxelles, the Brussels University Hospital (H.U.B.) has grouped the Erasme Hospital, the Jule Bordet Institute and the Queen Fabiola Children's University Hospital (HUDERF). Thanks to this grouping, the H.U.B. is today the University Hospital of the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB). Uniting these three institutions of international renown has served to effectively pool their respective expertise and competence in offering excellent care for all. In addition to this core mission, the H.U.B. pursues scientific research and trains the physicians and the nurses of the future. Today, the Brussels University Hospital has a staff of close to 6'000, with 1'420 beds.
