As we look to scale further, increase local employment, and expand into new specialties such as orthopaedic surgery, having a world-class support structure is vital.

“To achieve our goals, we needed to strengthen our communications, patient experience, and business development functions. We are thrilled to welcome Ava, Caitlin, Adele, and Rishi to the team as we enter this exciting next phase of growth across both our Manchester and London hospitals.”
