| As CEO of Cosmetic Surgery of the Royal Liver Building, Sarah leads the organisation with unwavering focus on clinical excellence, patient safety, and strategic growth. With over 20 years’ experience in senior and board-level leadership, she brings a rare combination of healthcare insight, business acumen, and regulatory expertise to her role.

She provides clear strategic direction while maintaining close alignment with governance, compliance, and CQC regulatory frameworks. Passionate about patient safety, Sarah fosters a culture of transparency, clinical accountability, and excellence in care.
