Guildford cancer care facility reaches completion
Assura's state-of-the-art cancer care facility in Guildford has reached practical completion. The occasion was marked by representatives from Prime plc, VINCI Building, and members of the Assura team.
Spanning 24,300 sq. ft, the £30.5 million centre will offer oncology treatments and patients with cancer will have access to the latest treatment options. These include highly targeted radiotherapy using a Magnetic Resonance Image Linear Accelerator (MR Linac), and Theranostics.
In addition to offering advanced cancer treatments to private patients, the centre will offer some NHS patients access to technology not currently available on the NHS.
Phil Holland, Chief Investment Officer at Prime, said: “This project has been a testament to the collaborative efforts of our dedicated team, committed to constructing a world-class facility that will make a meaningful difference in the lives of cancer patients and their families.
''This centre stands as a beacon of hope, offering advanced medical care and cutting-edge technologies. Our vision for a patient-centric approach to healthcare has come to fruition, and we are confident that this facility will serve as a cornerstone in the fight against cancer, fostering healing, resilience and a brighter future for all those affected by this challenging journey.”
