A £12 million upgrade is underway at Queen’s Medical Centre, part of Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust, to expand and modernise its endoscopy unit. The project, funded by the Trust and NHS England, aims to increase clinical capacity and improve service delivery.
The new development will add a third procedure room to the unit, enabling a higher volume of more complex endoscopic procedures. Benefits are expected to include shorter waiting times, especially for urgent inpatient diagnostics, enhanced patient privacy, and compliance with national clinical standards for ventilation and space.
Henry Brothers Construction is handling the construction, which is scheduled for completion in early 2026. The project is part of a broader three-year regional investment programme through which NHS England has allocated over £57 million to endoscopy services across the East Midlands.
The upgrade is being delivered through the Pagabo Major Construction Works Framework, with architectural and engineering support from CPMG Architects, Keith Simpson Associates, EP Consulting, and Meller.
This infrastructure investment is designed to help the Trust meet the growing demand for endoscopy services and improve clinical team operational efficiency.
