: I'd say so Mike. Or 'Head of Department' would probably be more common in UK English, if that's what's required. Have a good day!

Thank you, Victoria - I like "Head of Department" in the U.S. also - at least in the hospitals in which my father used to work as a physician (he is retired now) - Mike :)

Dr. Jason Faulkner
: In the UK (and the U.S. Navy, strangely enough. I think that's because in the Navy, a "head" is also a toilet). SaludoZ, Mike!

"Chief of Service" is extremely common in blood centers, hospitals, and services within a hospital. Better to stick close to the original when the original is already a good choice. Examples:
