VISIO Health was founded by the mother-son duo of Ranjit and Sanjog Sandhu! Ranjit had a vision for making healthcare more patient (and staff) centred, and Sanjog’s dream was always to improve people’s mental and emotional wellbeing. They decided to combine forces and the rest was history! Here’s some more information about them:
Ranjit Sandhu
Ranjit is the lead Ophthalmic surgeon and co-founder of VISIO. She gained extensive experience in her field of Ophthalmology whilst working as a trainee at King’s college Hospital where she undertook an MD Research Degree from University of London, her thesis entitled ’Ocular Blood Flow in Retinal Disease’. She gained further experience on the Cambridge rotation followed by a second Fellowship at Moorfields Eye Hospital in Medical Retina and Uveitis or inflammatory eye disorders.
She took up her substantive Consultant post at Luton and Dunstable University Hospital in 2014 where she set up and became the clinical lead for the one-stop Macular Degeneration and Uveitis service.
She is highly skilled and has performed over 6000 cataract procedures and specialises in complex cataracts such as those in diabetes and inflammatory eye disease. She is passionate about her work, striving for excellence in care.
She is a mother of two boys and whilst she trained with two young children supported by her family, they grew up fast and after taking up her substantive Consultant post, she was soon looking for a new challenge!
Buckinghamshire is her home where not only did she take up her first senior house officer post at Stoke Mandeville Hospital, but her children were schooled in Buckinghamshire as well. Bucks remains close to her heart and she wanted to do more to give back to her local community. She had a vision and decided to take up the exciting new entrepreneurial challenge of setting up VISIO Health.
In her spare time, Ranjit like to walk, run, cycle and trek. She has raised funds for the Moorfields Charity by participating in the London Half Marathon a few years ago. She also raised funds for the Blind Veterans Charity by cycling from London to Paris more recently. She also likes to trek and has travelled to the Western Himalayas and is gearing up for her next adventure, Kilimanjaro in 2025!
Sanjog Sandhu
Sanjog is a highly motivated and a logical minded individual with a Masters in Civil Engineering. He has always held an interest in business and technology, from running a phone repair business in school to jailbreaking his friends’ iPhones (don’t tell Apple!). He became fascinated by human psychology and emotional responses while going through a personal development journey overcoming his stutter. He learnt to love public speaking, comfort zone growth and empathic connection.
He teamed up with his mother, Ranjit, to fulfil their vision for providing holistic care alongside medical and surgical treatments. VISIO Health was co-founded; where Ophthalmology, Dermatology, Aesthetics and Wellbeing services would be offered.
His experience in technology consulting, cyber security, social media, marketing strategies, and report writing enabled him to hit the ground running where he embarked upon a steep yet exciting learning curve of setting up a healthcare facility and successfully managed and directed the entire project.
He has also completed various personal development courses, acquired interpersonal skills, public speaking skills, qualified as a coach and a neurolinguistic practitioner, and loves to snowboard in his spare time! These qualities, as well as possessing a high level of emotional intelligence, enables him to follow his heart and passion for providing Wellbeing services for the patients and staff alike at VISIO Health.
