"I’ve previously enjoyed working with GPs and banks regarding the acquisitions and disposals of health centres, pharmacies and care homes and will take this experience forward as part of the Alsters Kelley team.

"Our ambition is to grow the department and showcase the team as national leaders in the field of healthcare commercial property. Much of the work we are doing in this field is ground-breaking which gives both the team and our clients a huge sense of pride and satisfaction,” he finished.

Managing partner Catherine Wahlberg commented: "Andrew fits in with our commitment to combine specialist legal expertise and commercial solutions with a customer service that is welcoming and efficient.”
