What people say about Cobalt

"Starting a new job can be daunting, but arriving at Cobalt Health I was instantly made to feel welcome and part of the team. I was equipped with sufficient support and ongoing training, including the opportunity to see an MRI scanner in action. It’s been so refreshing to work in such an open and honest team environment where staff members are approachable and happy to help with any questions, no matter how silly! I have been fully supported throughout my time with the company and would recommend anyone to join the Cobalt family."

What it's like working at Cobalt

"I partnered with Cobalt to set up the first rapid access clinic more than 10 years ago, we have been successfully collaborating since, enabling patients to obtain a diagnosis and treatment plan within a matter of days rather than weeks."

Mr Harminder Gosal — Specialist Knee surgeon

"Providing the first NHS commissioned lung cancer screening service in England brought several challenges for a hospital provider. By partnering with an experienced mobile imaging provider, we have successfully overcome the significant logistical and staffing risks, and brought a bespoke, high quality clinic solution to the ‘hard to reach’ population. The success of the programme, and the excellent participant feedback, is due in no small part to Cobalt Health and ensures that we remain operationally ready to extend the service to neighbouring CCGs in the coming months."

Prof Richard Booton PhD FRCP — Clinical Director

"The Cobalt staff, including radiographers, management, accounts etc were all a pleasure to deal with. They were accommodating, profiessional, friendly and became part of the Hospital team. We would most certainly have Cobalt as a service provider back again should the occasion arise."
