Former colleagues and friends recently joined retired Consultant Psychiatrist Dr James G. Henderson at Royal Cornhill Hospital to celebrate an incredible milestone – his 100th birthday! 🎉

Dr Henderson had a remarkable career, serving as a Consultant at The Ross Clinic from its opening in 1959 until his retirement in 1991. He also spent nine years as a member of the NHS Grampian Board and was a founder member of the Royal College of Psychiatrists in 1971.

A wonderful celebration of a life and career that made a lasting impact.
