Setting Up a Private Clinic: Shared Lessons in Resilience, Strategy, and Survival
11th June 2025, 7pm in collaboration with PRASIS and Ballards LLP
Join us for an insightful webinar exploring the compelling journey of The Westbourne Centre, a private surgical day centre founded in 2009 through a joint venture between four surgeons. Originally established to deliver high-quality cosmetic and dental services, the centre’s early days were anything but smooth.
Launched at the height of a global financial crisis and amid a turbulent corporate takeover, The Westbourne Centre faced serious financial and operational challenges from the outset. This webinar will unpack how the clinic not only survived but ultimately thrived—emerging as a model of strategic resilience and clinical excellence.
What you’ll learn:
-
How strategic and business plans were reshaped under pressure
-
The clinic’s journey towards sustainable service diversification
-
Why maintaining clinical quality was non-negotiable
-
The critical role of staff excellence—and how to retain top talent
-
The Centre’s current structure and service profile
-
A look ahead: what the future holds
In addition, Ballards LLP will discuss the tax and accountancy considerations critical to setting up and sustaining a successful private practice.
While every clinic is unique, the lessons from The Westbourne Centre’s experience are broadly applicable. Whether you're an NHS surgeon exploring private practice, already in private practice, or planning to start your own clinic, this webinar offers valuable insights and practical guidance.
