He is now being cared for in an National Health Service (NHS) hospital. But he will also be seen by his own private doctor. This is for the third time in last nine months that Prince Philip has to visit hospital. On Christmas, he had to spend four days in hospital, following an operation to clear a blocked heart artery. He was last seen at public engagements in the seaport town of Cowes earlier this week. IANS
