We attract referrals from across the whole country for other specialties (i.e. urology).
We attract referrals from across the country for some specialties including urology. Our Minimal Access Therapy Training Unit (key-hole surgery) is one of only three such training units in the UK. Our patients also benefit from state of the art diagnostic equipment including two MRI scanners, four CT scanners, interventional radiology equipment and a gamma camera. We have one of the lowest mortality rates in the country.
We employ around 4,200 members of staff making us one of Guildford’s largest employers. In addition, the hospital is supported by a thriving group of 500 volunteers all of whom provide valuable services on an independent, voluntary basis.
We have a great reputation and history of embracing quality improvement (QI) and transformation work – continuously improving is one of our core values.
The Trust has strong links with the nearby University of Surrey and staff are well supported if they wish to undertake further study.
