Christian’s main focus is to continue to develop Communitas Clinics and improve the quality of intermediate and primary care services in the UK.
He sees this being delivered through innovative service developments and pathway redesign, a multidisciplinary approach to the management of chronic conditions and a stronger emphasis on prevention and lifestyle management.
His main focus over the past 10 years has been the improvement of standards in healthcare services provided in the community through his stewardship of Brigstock Family Practice, Brigstock Skin and Laser and Communitas Clinics.
His innovative approach has resulted in reduced waiting times for an NHS appointment in the services Communitas provides to between 2-4 weeks, whilst reducing the cost per episode and therefore saving NHS Commissioners up to 40% of the cost of a secondary care contact. These operational achievements have been delivered whilst attaining patient satisfaction levels of 95% and above.
Under Christian’s leadership, Communitas had grown to become the UK’s leading provider of community-based dermatology services in the UK, providing intermediate care for a population of over two million in and around the South East of England.
