Guy Self

Guy Self is an English neurosurgeon and the former CEO of Holby General Hospital. He is very unpredictable, assertive and driven, Guy Self is a leader who demands excellence from others.

He is a spontaneous, original thinker who seldom lets rules dictate his lust for work and life. Irresistible to some, but dogmatic to others, he inspires intense loyalty and resistance with equal force. Always right, he will sullenly brood if betrayed and make life very difficult if need be; cross him at your peril.

Interference in the ED (2014)
Guy makes his first appearance at the ED for a meeting regarding Martin Ashford's future in HCH following F2 Lily Chao 's decision to report Martin for misconduct. He gave Martin a warning and told Lily to be more careful. Guy next appears briefly, as Clinical Lead Zoe Hanna visits him following Connie Beauchamp's arrival in the ED. Zoe is furious that he hasn't discussed this with her but, Guy refuses to sack Connie, stating she is one of Holby's best ever surgeons that actually wants to work in the ED. When Zoe steps down as Clinical Lead she goes to Guy with Connie and said that she steps down so then Connie takes over the ED, Guy tells Connie to get rid of Zoe but she refusses to get rid of her because shes one of the greatest Consultants she's ever worked with.

When Guy Self resigned as CEO in Holby City, former CEO Henrik Hanssen took over the role in 2015, which now means Guy is no longer CEO of Holby General Hospital.
