International commercial law firm Hill Dickinson has advised Europe’s largest digital health provider Push Doctor on a series B funding round which has raised £20.2 million.

Manchester-headquartered Push Doctor is a digital health consumer brand, connecting patients to a smart network of thousands of UK qualified GPs, giving them access to a doctor in as little as six minutes on any device.

The series B funding round was led by Accelerated Digital Ventures and Draper Esprit, with participation from European funds Oxford Capital, Seventure Partners and Partech Ventures.

This round of investment will enable Push Doctor to bring new products to market, the first of which will hit later this year. This will further expand the company’s value-proposition for patients as it couples its market-changing instant access to doctors with complementary products and services.

The brand’s founder and CEO, Eren Ozagir, said: “We have treated more cases digitally than anyone in Europe and consistently grown over 35% month-on-month for 16 months. As a result, we have a dataset that provides a unique view of the medical issues facing a nation. This has meant that we have been able to scope and create a data-driven digital health platform that will treat the whole person. No one before Push Doctor has provided consumers with access to a single digital health platform that combines responsive medicine and chronic condition management as well as fitness and nutritional conditioning.”

Push Doctor was advised by Hill Dickinson corporate partner Jonathan Gillow. Jonathan also advised the firm on its series A financing round back in 2016. Jonathan said: “It’s been a pleasure working with Push Doctor again. This latest round of funding will enable the company to increase its customer base and digital services across the globe.”
