Lloyd Court – Community Diagnostic Centre

Lloyd Court – Community Diagnostic Centre:

Project Status: Under Construction

Ophthalmology is both nationally and locally one of the busiest outpatient specialities. At MKUH, it accounts for between 10-15% of outpatient activity and continues to see ongoing increasing demand. The current outpatient accommodation is in a refurbished ward area, with little opportunity for expansion. Whilst this is currently manageable through efficiency and innovation, the projected increase in demand for Ophthalmology services will soon mean that the estate cannot meet the demands of the service. It is therefore proposed that an alternative location is found in the form of a community eye clinic, based in Lloyds Court, Milton Keynes. This city central location will provide an improved patient environment and allow for growth in service.
