STRUCTURE: Ipswich Hospital Trust to open a centre for angioplasty treatment.

The Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) Centre is expected to be announced soon, subject to approval by the hospital board and NHS Suffolk.

Conservative MP for Ipswich Ben Gummer said: “Ipswich Hospital has had a difficult time in recent years, but this is a sign that things are getting better and that the hospital has a bright future. Ipswich Hospital is central to the community of our town and county. It is a tribute to the community as well as the hospital that it has achieved this landmark today.”
