Medical Defense Society Testimonials

After time off for family reasons, I needed to return to GP work. Medical Defense Society treated me with courtesy, respect, and understanding. No judgement. No barriers. Just support. Since then, they’ve adapted to every change in my career — from hospice work to maternity cover and shielding during COVID. One call is all it ever takes.

Dr Price - Herts, UK

As a portfolio GP working across different locations, including abroad, I’ve always found Medical Defense Society refreshingly transparent, approachable, and level headed. Their bespoke cover is flexible, fairly priced, and far ahead of the alternatives. I’ve recommended them to colleagues and they’ve been glad to make the move.

Dr Skidmore - Gloucestershire, UK

I’ve been with Medical Defense Society since 2017. They truly are what they promise, an organisation that understands the challenges GPs face. They’ve supported me and my partners through NHS and GMC complaints, a coroner’s inquest, and more. Every time: prompt replies, expert advice, and hand-holding when it was most needed.

Dr S Yap - Nottingham, UK

As a busy portfolio GP, I often have last-minute changes to my work. Medical Defense Society has always responded quickly, including urgent requests like cover for sports matches. When I’ve needed advice, they’ve offered tailored solutions with compassion and understanding. It’s a high value, comprehensive service.

Dr Phil Cox Swansea Bay, UK

Honestly, I have never had such a helpful and responsive service anywhere else in personal or professional life.

Dr C Lamb North Wales, UK

I’ve been with Medical Defense Society for many years. Their response is always prompt, and you’re connected to the right expert quickly. When I faced a false complaint following racial discrimination from a patient, Medical Defense Society supported me with expert medico-legal advice with empathy and dignity. They helped me resolve it locally and reminded me I wasn’t alone.

GP Member, Surrey, UK

Since July 2023, Medical Defense Society has provided excellent service. They arranged specialist cover for my Occupational Health and Private GP work, and even supported my nurse to deliver flu jabs. All at a reasonable price and with real efficiency.

Dr Lubin, London UK

I’m incredibly grateful for the outstanding support I received during a difficult GMC referral. Every point of contact was kind, professional, and reassuring. I was nervous at first about moving away from the ‘big name’ providers — but I wouldn’t look anywhere else now. Their service is personal, expert, and exactly what GPs need.

GP Member, London

I can’t recommend Medical Defense Society enough. We value the lack of red tape, the accessibility, and the clarity. Advice is always one email away to help with complex queries, Medical Defense Society has guided us through it all. I’ve encouraged all my colleagues to join.
