Why are we called Sulis Imaging?

​

The ancient name of Bath was Aquae Sulis, meaning "Waters of Sulis". Sulis is an ancient British goddess. Since medieval times, the location which we now know as Bath has been associated with the healing properties of its natural springs. While approaches to medicine and medical procedures today are undoubtedly very different, the city of Bath enjoys a reputation of first-class healthcare, and is a sought-after destination both for consultants to work and patients to visit.
