Royal Leadworth Hospital was the local hospital in Leadworth. It was the main location of a confrontation between the Doctor and Prisoner Zero, who was using patients in the coma ward of the hospital to effect disguises so that he could evade recapture by the Atraxi. Rory Williams was an emergency unit nurse at the facility. Dr. Ramsden was at least an on-call doctor at the institution.
Though the Doctor was never a patient of the hospital, he did appear to complete his regenerative cycle there, while engaged with the Atraxi. He also notably stole clothing from the staff locker room, in much the same way that his third and eighth selves had derived their basic "looks" from clothing they had stolen from hospitals that played pivotal roles in their initial adventures. (DW: The Eleventh Hour)
- Though the production team did take the time to provide a sign for the hospital, it is not especially visible in any shot that survived to the final cut of the episode. The name of this facility is instead plainly visible on Rory's ID badge.
"Leadworth" contains an anagram, "Late Dr Who." Alternatively, given the seeming importance of the Leadworth Duck Pond, "late" could be "Teal" -- a form of Duck. For Amy's Pond. Or Dr. Song's River.
