Hospitales Universitarios San Roque

Hospitales Universitarios San Roque (HUSR) has two main centres on the island: Hospitales Universitarios San Roque located in the city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria; and Hospitales Universitarios San Roque in Maspalomas, located in the most popular tourist area in the south of the island of Gran Canaria. For this medical centre promoting health and a healthy lifestyle are the pillars upon which its philosophy of prevention is based, contributing thus to creating a healthy society in the widest sense and, therefore, a more prosperous and happier society.

The practice of sports and suitable regular exercise at any age is one of the main targets of this promotion strategy whiche has led Hospitales Universitarios San Roque to participate in the LPA Night Run, with the Canterbury Lions, the International Basketball Federation, the Challenge Mogán and La Villa Trail Moya among many others.

Hospitales San Roque has always been at the forefront of technology in the field of Diagnostic Imaging. We have incorporated the Multi-Slice CT- Scan with 64 Detectors, which is the first of its kind in the islands and allows us to obtain high-resolution three-dimensional images, and images of the arteries (including non-invasive images of the coronary arteries). We are the first unit in the Canary Islands to become fully digital, so we are also the first to apply the latest technology to carry out the diagnosis, file scans with the same quality as the original ones and send them via email to your trusted specialist. In addition, we also apply the latest technology for MRIs, such as 3-Tesla High-Field Resonance and a Very High-Field Open Resonance. This equipment is regularly updated with the latest technology developments available in the market. Our centres in Maspalomas and Lanzarote have a 1.5 Tesla Magnetic Resonance Scan.
