About us
Independent Health Group was set up in 2004 by Dr Matthew Wordsworth with the aim of offering patients the choice of being treated out of hospital, closer to home. Matt wanted to create a new health care organisation in which like-minded health care professionals could deliver truly patient centred care. Our aim was to be a leading provider of community-based diagnostic and treatment services of the highest quality, where patients always come first.
Since 2004 we have grown the range of services we offer, and the sites we work from, but we still believe that Independent Health Group offers you an opportunity to make a real difference to patients care and treatment.
We work in a different kind of environment to that of an acute hospital setting. Our patients see the same clinician and are offered specific appointment times.
We offer our staff an innovative, alternative way to delivering health care. Our staff work within small teams with plenty of time for patient contact. You will have the opportunity to contribute to the development of a fantastic organisation, as well as the opportunity to develop your skills and knowledge in a health care setting.
