Beautiful article!
I want to add that specially targeted patient population hospitals are not unique only to London, but actually pretty common before the 1900s.
In New York City, we had the German Hospital (Now Cornell), the Jewish Hospital (now Mount Sinai Hospital), the English hospital (Columbia), etc all with lineages that were originally tied to ethnic groups.
(I hope it goes without saying that these ethnic preferences are no longer applicable; all these world class hospitals are highly multinational.)
