A teaching hospital for students of multiple vocations, the Glostrup Hospital is affiliated with the University of Copenhagen and more than 200 of its employees hold academic posts at the university, including 14 professorial chairs.
It is the primary hospital for the 165,000 citizens of the townships of Albertslund, Ishøj, Høje-Taastrup, Glostrup, and Vallensbæk and as a secondary referral center for larger parts of Region Hovedstaden in neurosurgery, clinical neurophysiology, neurology, neurosurgery, and occupational medicine. Several high-profiled subspecialized clinical centers with research activities are incorporated in the departments of the Glostrup Hospital, including the Danish Headache Center.
Annual visits number 230,000 patients, including 40,000 in-patients, and 18,000 surgical procedures. With 3,200 employees, 512 beds, Eastern Denmark's largest emergency department and the country's largest ophthalmology department, the Glostrup Hospital is currently undergoing expansion and reorganization to make it a regional and national center in selected specialties while continuing to serve the local community as a general hospital.
Architecturally, the Glostrup Hospital is renowned as an example of new public institutions built in the first decades after World War II. Built from the ground in 1952-1958 after an international competition won by architects Martha Ypyä, Ragnar Ypyä, and Veikko Malmio, the hospital was officially inaugurated September 2, 1958 by king Frederick IX of Denmark.
