About Patient First Social Enterprise Limited
Patient First Social Enterprise is a not-for-profit, clinician-led provider of community healthcare in north-east London. Founded by Newham GPs in 2010, it provides dermatology, minor surgery, musculoskeletal, physiotherapy, gynaecology and cardiology services through direct NHS contracts. Clinics take place in local GP surgeries and health centres.
The organisation works with GPs, hospital departments and NHS commissioners to improve access to treatment and address waiting-time pressures. Its services reach patients across Newham, Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest. As a social enterprise, Patient First reinvests the money it earns into the services it delivers.
