Emily Appleby, Medical Photographer said: “We work collaboratively, aiding healthcare delivery in ways many might not notice. We document medical conditions, procedures and treatment outcomes, turning cases into visual data that healthcare teams can use to inform their decisions, monitor progress and enhance patient care.

“Our work also extends beyond the clinical setting, contributing to the support of medical education and research. With appropriate consent, the photographs we create appear in medical textbooks, journals, and teaching materials, helping to train future healthcare professionals.”
