SWLP hosts delegation from China

SWLP hosted a delegation of senior hospital managers and clinicians from China in October 2015.

They came to look at our state-of-the-art laboratories and to learn more about best practice in pathology.

Accompanying them on the laboratory tour were Saghar Missaghian-Cully, SWLP Managing Director, Dr Aodhan Breathnach, SWLP Clinical Director and Jamie Laughlin, Microbiology Discipline Manager.

They also had the opportunity to meet with other senior managers and staff in SWLP and were very interested in how the NHS works.

Saghar Missaghian-Cully, Managing Director for South West London Pathology, said: “This visit by a high-level delegation of Chinese leaders was a great success. Hosting events like this helps us to establish our reputation as a forward thinking and innovative NHS organisation”.

SWLP has recently hosted delegates from Finland and will soon have visitors from Australia.
