The Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic and District Hospital NHS Trust in Oswestry, Shropshire, England provides elective orthopaedic surgery and musculoskeletal medical services.

It was formed in 1933 when the Shropshire Orthopaedic Hospital was renamed The Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital.

In 1903 Agnes Hunt sought treatment for her hip condition from a Liverpool surgeon, Robert Jones, and their collaboration began. [cite web | title=History | work=Institute or Orthopaedics | url=http://www.keele.ac.uk/depts/rjah/ | accessdate=2006-12-05]
