Who looks after you?

Are these real, practising doctors?

Yes. Everyone shown on this page is a practising UK clinician. Their role and relevant professional credentials are listed with their profile.

Who is responsible for my care?

Peter Grice is our Clinical Lead and Professor Suks Minhas is our Medical Director. The clinician who reviews your assessment is named in your record.

Will I actually speak to them?

Yes, when a consultation is part of your treatment or your results need discussing. Suks and Tet oversee the service, but they do not see every patient themselves.

Why do specialists this senior work with an online service?

They wanted to make good men’s healthcare easier to access. They set the clinical standards, advise the team and step in when a case needs specialist input.
