Milton Keynes Ophthalmology and Gastroenterology hospital opens doors

CHEC’s new site set to reduce NHS waiting times and increase patient choice.

CHEC, one of the UK’s leading providers of community healthcare, is ready to welcome its first NHS patients after officially opening the doors at its Pitfield Lane site in Milton Keynes. The conveniently located facility will help reduce NHS waiting times and increase patient choice by providing access to ophthalmology and gastroenterology services in the community.

With ample free parking and excellent transport links, the new state-of-the-art clinical facility is equipped with one ophthalmology theatre and one endoscopy suite. Now accepting ophthalmology referrals, the Milton Keynes hospital is supporting the NHS to reduce waiting times by treating patients within four weeks.

“Patient choice, exceptional care and equity of access are central to CHEC’s operations and ethos, which is why we’re proud to collaborate with NHS partners nationwide,” explains Jose Bailey, Commercial Director at CHEC. 

“For well over a decade, we’ve been trusted by the NHS to deliver healthcare services in the community. We’re excited to become part of the Milton Keynes community and would welcome local GPs and optometrists to get in touch to learn more about how we can work in partnership to make much-needed treatments more readily accessible,” concludes Jose.
