Commenting on the visit Iain Smith said:
"It is not just those in St Andrews who will benefit from the new hospital but people from Auchtermuchty to Tayport and Cupar to Anstruther. The whole of the constituency will reap the benefits of more localised healthcare.
"It is a magnificent looking building and it is clear that a great deal of work has been put into it design and eco friendly credentials. This is a very welcome development here in North East Fife and is one that has been desperately needed for a number of years."

"Good progress has been made on the site an I am very impressed with everything that I saw. There is no doubt that the whole of north east Fife is eagerly awaiting the Hospital's completing and looking forward to the improvements to local healthcare it will bring Fife.
