Horder Healthcare purchases McIndoe Surgical Centre, East Grinstead
Independent healthcare charity Horder Healthcare has purchased McIndoe Surgical Centre.
McIndoe specialises in maxillofacial, plastic reconstruction surgery and ophthalmology. In order to maintain its heritage and to ensure that it is future facing, the hospital will now be known as The McIndoe Centre, part of Horder Healthcare.
Horder Healthcare’s chief executive Di Thomas said, “The reason for embarking on this new venture is to extend the reach of our charity. There are many synergies between McIndoe and Horder Healthcare. Both organisations share a similar ethos of high standards in patient care and are centres of excellence in their respective fields. We plan to work in partnership with the local community and clinicians to enhance the services currently provided at The McIndoe Centre. In time we will develop further specialist services such as elective orthopaedics.The McIndoe Centre is now fully owned by Horder Healthcare. It is situated adjacent to the renowed Queen Victoria Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, East Grinstead. Horder Healthcare and Queen Victoria Hospital are in early discussions to identify opportunities and where appropriate, work collaboratively. Our aim is to enable each organisation to achieve their respective strategic aims, to the benefit of the communities our organisations serve."
Richard Tyler, chief executive of Queen Victoria Hospital added, “We welcome Horder Healthcare to our healthcare campus and wish them well in their endeavours”.
