CHEC, one of the largest providers of community-based ophthalmology services in the UK, is ready to welcome its first NHS patients after officially opening the doors at its new Pitfield Lane site in Milton Keynes.
With ample free parking and excellent transport links, this state-of-the-art facility has a new clinical theatre and will help increase patient choice by providing access to ophthalmology services in the community.
Now accepting ophthalmology referrals, the Milton Keynes hospital will support 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 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.
