What are the treatments available for multiple sclerosis? #MultipleSclerosis is a disease where the immune cells attack the nervous system. Symptoms of MS vary from numbness and tingling to limb weakness, visual disturbances, pain and fatigue. AHSCT can offer life changing and transformational results for people with MS. The treatment aims to ‘reboot’ the immune system, to stop it attacking itself and repair any existing damage. Join our webinar on 21st November to hear our consultants answer the most frequently asked questions about AHSCT and how it is transforming the lives of patients.

October is Black History Month, and this year’s theme 'Reclaiming Narratives’ is a powerful reminder of the importance of correcting historical inaccuracies, uplifting untold success stories, and embracing the full richness of Black history and culture. We asked some of our colleagues to share their own personal narratives: Why is it important to celebrate Black History Month? What does it mean to them, and why is it crucial for HCA UK to recognise Black history? Stay tuned throughout October for in-depth interviews and personal stories shared by three of our colleagues featured in the film. #BlackHistoryMonth #ReclaimingNarratives #HCAUK #HCAHealthcareUK #DiversityAndInclusion #BlackVoices

Across HCA Healthcare UK, we bring together teams of experts in multiple specialties to care for patients with even the most complex conditions. Experts like Mr Ahmad Sayasneh, who led a team of surgeons at London Bridge Hospital to perform groundbreaking surgery for a patient with advanced ovarian cancer. Mrs Davies' cancer had spread close to her heart and the blood supply to her stomach. Following a Multidisciplinary Team Meeting, it was agreed that removing the cancer surgically, followed by chemotherapy, would be the best treatment option. But given her advanced diagnosis, surgery would be challenging. Mr Sayasneh sought the expertise of his colleagues Mr Abrie Botha, upper gastrointestinal surgeon, and Mrs Karen Harrison-Phipps, a thoracic surgeon, to work as a team. Uniting their skills, they successfully removed all her visible cancer in a single, minimally invasive operation, significantly reducing Mrs Davies' recovery time and enabling her to begin her chemotherapy without delay. On the 12th July, Mr Sayasneh shared the team’s innovative approach at the British Gynaecological Cancer Society's Annual Scientific Meeting, highlighting the impact of surgical collaboration and advanced medical techniques in improving patient outcomes.
