(Sharecast News) – Medica Group said Stephen Davies was retiring as medical director and would that Robert Lavis, group clinical director, would replace him.
Davies will leave at the end of May after seven years at the teleradiology group. The company said he transformed service, was influential in the group’s flotation in 2017 and had played an important part in establishing it in Ireland.
Lavis joined Medica’s leadership team in September and has helped drive several projects including its first augmented intelligence product. Before joining Medica he was a reporting radiologist for the company for six years and worked at Gloucester Royal Hospital where he is currently a consultant radiologist.
Davies said: “It has been a real pleasure for me personally to have been given the opportunity to lead the clinical governance function at Medica over the past seven years. There have been many highlights but the transformation of Medica into the leading, clinically led teleradiology company in the UK and the subsequent successful listing of the company on the London Stock Exchange are amongst the main achievements.”
Medica said Davies and Lavis would work together to ensure an orderly transition in the months before Davies’s departure. The company’s shares rose 2.4% to 129.99p at 09:04 GMT.
