As part of our overall mission of advancing healthcare at The London Clinic, our patients should have complete peace of mind when it comes to their healthcare plan, along with the tools to empower them to make the right choices based on their specific needs.
We’re therefore pleased to be announcing the launch of an entirely new digital healthcare service, which will allow our patients to connect with world-class consultants, therapists and healthcare professionals from the comfort of their own homes – or anywhere they want.
Connect by The London Clinic is a technology platform and growing community of top doctors whom our patients can access for video consultations anywhere in the world depending on their needs. Connect covers a vast array of specialist areas – including cancer (radiotherapy and surgery), orthopaedics and gastroenterology – with internationally renowned consultants already signed up.
The London Clinic chose to partner with healthcare technology provider Trustedoctor, which is renowned for its security as much as its cutting-edge tech.
What’s particularly unique and exciting about Connect is that multiple people can join consultations simultaneously, including specialists, patients, family members and interpreters. Patients have the confidence of a completely secure platform to share medical records and a clear pathway of referrals.
“Connect is an important part of our overall mission of advancing healthcare,” comments Al Russell, Chief Executive at The London Clinic.
“As both an independent hospital and charity, we see our responsibility as being to increase collaboration and community in our industry – on a local and international level – as well as making healthcare easier to access for our patients.”
There are currently over 80 senior consultants available on Connect, in addition to therapists and healthcare professionals.
“We are thrilled to be introducing this new service,” continues Russell, “which will bring some of the services of our hospital, along with the unparalleled expertise of our consultants and healthcare professionals, right into people’s homes.”
