Optegra Surrey announces new hospital director

Optegra Eye Hospital Surrey, based in Guildford, has appointed Andy Willcocks to be its new hospital director.

A former nurse, Willcocks has previously worked as the clinical director many other UK hospitals and has helped to launch a multi-million pound theatre at Aspen.

He said: ‘A big attraction about joining Optegra was its specialist nature. Every room of the hospital, every piece of equipment, every single member of staff is dedicated purely to eye health… as a result, all investments are into the latest technology, equipment and training, so we can offer solutions to eye problems which others cannot.’
