Medicine is complex and the decisions patients make are life-changing. Because one decision can change everything, we help you find the medics achieving better outcomes today — based on trusted clinical insight.
One patient’s search for the right specialist inspired The MedicBook. Instead of a biopsy recommended locally, we referred them to a sub-specialist who took one look at the scan and knew a biopsy could cause metastatic cancer.
Our choice of hospital, surgeon or physician, will determine the treatment we receive. This means not necessarily the latest, best practice, so we empower patients to make better decisions.
We take time to understand your medical history, symptoms and potential diagnosis in detail.
Based on matching your needs with their expertise, we source you the perfect consultants.
We arrange fast-track consultations and diagnostics, where possible in a one-stop clinic.
We gather and share medical data securely, facilitating document transfer to your chosen consultant.
We coordinate consultations with travel and accommodation, and even medical evacuation and acute care.
"Having worked in private hospitals near London’s finest NHS teaching hospitals, I met so many consultants who shared their expertise with me. I watched them in theatre, attended their multidisciplinary meetings and I heard about their breakthroughs.
Consultants in: head and neck cancers, liver and kidney transplants; urology, gynaecology, haematology and endocrinology; cardiac surgery, vascular, respiratory, neurosciences, spinal, orthopaedics, and many more; diabetic foot reconstruction; consultants curing MS; creating a new (neo) bladder; preventing aortic arch aneurysms — just a few of the super-specialists I was privileged to work with."

Based on years in private hospitals and health insurance, we’ve curated an evolving list of consultants. We know the hospitals, pathways and who delivers the latest evidence-based care.
Stay informed about the latest medical advances, treatments and technology leading to better health outcomes.
Having worked in private hospitals, health insurance and medical concierge services for 15 years we have a carefully curated list of consultants who are at the cutting edge of treatment across the majority of medical specialties.
Typically we give three consultants’ names for patients to choose from. For each, we’ll provide a rationale and summary of their practice, their sub-specialties, expertise, training and achievements. For rarer conditions, we use our network of consultants and hospital executives to find the perfect specialist.
Of course, timings vary but sometimes same day appointments are possible. We have close relationships with our hospital partners and many consultants, so we can often expedite a patient’s healthcare journey. This includes fast-tracked appointments or asking for additional clinics to be held by doctors. We can arrange for video consultations if travel is required but a patient's health precludes it at the time.
The UK has an image exchange portal (IEP) which allows scans to be uploaded and securely exported from one NHS or private hospital to another. This includes image transfers from the Channel Islands. International image transfers beyond the UK can also be arranged.
There is no cost to the patient for using our service. We are paid a small commission by our partner hospitals. We are fortunate to work with the best hospitals in the UK.
Our partner hospitals are Cleveland Clinic London and HCA Healthcare UK — which has hospitals in London, Birmingham, and Manchester. Our partners are at the forefront of healthcare, providing: the very latest treatments; advanced diagnostic and surgical technology, and multidisciplinary care to optimise health outcomes — including level 3 intensive care units.
Whilst unlikely, should a treatment not be available in these hospitals, we always put the patient’s needs first and will source the right consultant elsewhere. Importantly, our clients have access to hospitals in London, Manchester and Birmingham, where our knowledge base of treatments and consultants is.
Many of our hospitals offer immediate assessment and care 24/7 for stable patients with acute conditions. Whether patients are transferring from another hospital or seeking urgent treatment, we can facilitate quick, smooth transitions for your care — from anywhere in the UK or for medical evacuation by air or road from abroad. *Exclusions: no strokes, major road traffic accidents or crushing chest pain until stable.
