There are 15,000 prescribing pharmacists in the UK. They are underpaid and overworked with poor future career prospect.
Retail pharmacies are facing closures due to NHS funding reductions and escalating expenses, dropping from 14,000 in 2019 to just below 10,000. This figure is anticipated to fall below 7,300 within the next three years.
NHS waiting times for all critical, as well primary treatments have reached 12 months. This makes pharmacies prime for supporting NHS with offer of pharmacy first.
NHS payments delays & cuts are increasing they have reached critical levels and are unsustainable for pharmacy sector.
Our mission is to deliver circular economy with connected digital ecosystem for real health treatments.
Story:
Every journey is unique - Here's ours:
Our story began in 2020. While working on transforming the world's largest medical devices company, I noticed the profound impact of community pharmacies. However, it was disheartening to see these pharmacies struggling to fulfill NHS prescriptions due to rising inflation.
We recognised that over 15,000 nationwide pharmacists, deeply rooted in their local communities, were integral to the NHS ecosystem. This sparked the idea for HEAL - a solution designed to support these pharmacists and revolutionise UK healthcare.
At HEAL, we're creating a circular economy that connects doctors, clinics, local pharmacies, and labs, providing economical healthcare solutions. We're committed to alleviating the pressures faced by community pharmacies, independent doctors, clinics and helping them transform into clinical healthcare hubs.
Join us on our journey as we reshape the future of primary care.
