The Sydney Private Hospital is a private hospital located in the inner-western Sydney suburb of Ashfield, Australia. It is owned by Macquarie Health. The hospital opened in 1931[1] on the site of the former Fernleigh Rest Home, a pre and post maternity care institution for poor mothers.[2] It operated as the NSW Masonic Hospital until it was sold in 2000. The hospital's maternity and emergency services closed at that time.

In 2020 a new rehabilitation wing was built including private rooms, medical gymnasium and upgrades to the patient hydrotherapy pool.

The hospital specialises in surgical and rehabilitation for inpatients and day patients.
