About

I work with UK private practice medical professionals to ensure they have the right protection when things go wrong. After decades working alongside clinicians through complaints, claims, regulatory investigations, and complex medico-legal cases, I founded First Medical Indemnity to deliver a more modern and transparent approach to medical indemnity. First Medical Indemnity provides specialist medical indemnity insurance for UK private practice medical professionals, including consultants, surgeons, and other clinicians working outside the NHS. As a Lloyd’s Coverholder and Managing General Agent, we have delegated authority from Lloyd’s of London to underwrite and manage medical malpractice insurance directly. Our approach combines: • Specialist medical indemnity insurance • Expert medico-legal defence through Clyde & Co, one of the world’s leading medical malpractice law firms • Proactive risk management and professional supportThe goal is simple: to give private practice medical professionals protection they can rely on when their reputation, career, and livelihood are at risk. First Medical Indemnity operates under FCA oversight and is designed specifically for the realities of modern private practice.If you're a UK private practice medical professional reviewing your indemnity arrangements, feel free to connect or message me.
