New Lambton Heights is a suburb of Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia, located 9 kilometres (6 mi) west of Newcastle's central business district. It is split between the City of Lake Macquarie and City of Newcastle local government areas.
The suburb contains the John Hunter Hospital and two smaller facilities on the same site on Lookout Road, water reservoirs, a primary school and several small bushland reserves. It is largely populated by doctors, surgeons and other hospital staff, and hence is generally regarded within the higher end of Newcastle's socio-economic scale, along with suburbs such as Merewether Heights.
