Sara is Deloitte’s Global Health Sector Leader and leads the health practice in the UK. This encapsulates the firm’s work with the payor and provider systems both publicly and privately funded. Sara’s passion for health began when she moved to the UK in 2003 and was first exposed to the NHS.
Sara believes passionately in the mission of the NHS and sees the incredible value that a health service free at the point of need provides to society. With her teams, she supports the NHS to do more and better with the resources at its disposal. Some of Sara’s work includes supporting the government on its Coronavirus testing programme, and the introduction of robotic and cognitive automation to improve the speed and quality of NHS services and to release more time for direct patient care. It is the introduction and uptake of new innovative practices either pioneered by individuals or tested first in other health systems around the world that Sara most enjoys working with her NHS clients on.
In her global role, Sara is growing the firm’s presence in implementation of Electronic Health Records, and increasing the presence of AI and Generative AI in the firm’s work. She is also focused on health equity and sustainability and climate.
Sara is a trustee of the Peter Sowerby Foundation which supports healthcare causes and she is a trustee of the Conservation Collective, an environmental charity that promotes local teams working to solve environmental problems.
