The founding GP has 18 years of clinical experience including 6 years operating a private practice with 2,400 registered patients. The private healthcare model achieves gross margins of 52% after clinical staff costs, with health screenings at 68% margin and occupational health contracts at 58%.

Break-even is projected at month five.

The UK private healthcare market is valued at £12.8B, growing at 9.4% annually. Within a 10-mile radius, 186,000 residents include 42,000 households with private medical insurance (PMI) coverage and an estimated 28,000 self-pay patients willing to pay for faster access. NHS GP waiting times in the area average 18 days for routine appointments, driving 34% of local residents to consider private alternatives for non-emergency care.
