About Medefer

Medefer is an innovative CQC registered healthcare provider that aims to transform the way that healthcare is delivered, giving patients the right to choose who will provide their care at the point of a GP referral to a specialist.  We work alongside the NHS to deliver better, faster care for patients. Our vision is to completely reframe the way that healthcare is delivered, because every patient deserves the best possible healthcare.

There really isn’t a much better purpose, and we can and do make a difference for patients every single day. People who are sick, worried, or in pain desperately want to have a doctor review their symptoms and get them on the path to health again, or even just put their mind at rest. Medefer makes that happen. WE make that happen. 

We are a ground-breaking healthcare company.

We are unique in what we do.

And we need exceptional people, like you.
