St Vincent's Private Hospital Melbourne (formerly known as St Vincent's & Mercy Private Hospital) is a private hospital group in Victoria of Australia that is located across four campuses in the Melbourne suburbs of Fitzroy, East Melbourne , Kew and Werribee, Victoria. Each campus is denominated St Vincent's Private Hospital, with the associated suburb included as an addendum to the designation.

Major specialities include interventional cardiology and cardiothoracic surgery, obstetrics, neurosurgery and orthopaedics, paediatrics, ENT, hand surgery, oncology and general surgery.
