Set up your own private practice
From a single idea to a fully operational clinic. MedLRN guides clinicians through every step of launching a private practice — clinical, legal, and commercial.
Build a practice that's yours — and built to last
Pharmacist independent prescribers, nurses, and other clinicians are increasingly building their own private services. MedLRN helps you go from idea to launch with a clear plan, the right systems, and the confidence that you've set things up properly.
What setting up a practice really involves
It's more than clinical skill. We help you get every part of the business right from day one.
Business plan & model
Clarify your offer, target patients, and the numbers — revenue, costs, and break-even — so you launch on solid foundations.
Regulation & compliance
Understand registration, indemnity, data protection, and where CQC or other regulatory requirements may apply to your services.
Premises & equipment
Choose between clinic room hire, mobile, or online delivery, and set up a consultation space that's safe and patient-ready.
Brand & website
Build a credible identity, a website that converts, and online booking so patients can find you and book with ease.
Pricing & payments
Set prices with confidence, take payments smoothly, and structure packages that work for patients and your margins.
Marketing & growth
Attract your first patients and keep them coming back, with marketing that's ethical, effective, and right for healthcare.
Your roadmap to launch
A structured journey so nothing gets missed between idea and your first patient.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from clinicians setting up their own practice.
Do I need premises to start?
Not necessarily. Many clinicians start with room hire by the session, a mobile model, or online consultations before committing to a fixed location. We'll help you choose what suits your service and budget.
Will I need to register with the CQC?
It depends on the regulated activities you provide. We help you understand whether CQC or other regulatory registration applies to your specific services so you can plan accordingly. Final responsibility for compliance sits with you.
How much does it cost to get started?
Start-up costs vary widely depending on your model. A core part of our work is building a realistic budget and break-even plan so there are no surprises.
Can you help if I've already started?
Yes. Many clinicians come to us once trading to tighten governance, fix pricing, improve marketing, and grow. We meet you where you are.
What about indemnity insurance?
Appropriate indemnity for your scope of practice is essential. We highlight what to consider and point you toward suitable providers, but arranging cover is your responsibility.
Do you offer ongoing support after launch?
Yes — clinical and business mentoring is available so you keep growing with expert support rather than figuring it all out alone.
