Steve Roest's Linkedin Analytics

I am the CEO and co-founder of PocDoc, one of the fastest growing HealthTech businesses in the UK. PocDoc's mission is to find, screen for and prevent chronic diseases like Cardiovascular Disease, Type 2 Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease from putting millions of people at risk of early death and overwhelming healthcare systems. My passion for this mission comes from a very personal place - when I was 14, my father had a stroke due to undiagnosed Cardiovascular Disease. It was a catastrophic event that had huge ramifications for him and us as a family - and continues to this day. PocDoc's Healthy Heart Check has been used thousands of times across every part of the UK to deliver an NHS equivalent Health Check in Communities, Workplaces and at home - in 10 minutes, without needing to visit the GP. PocDoc has raised record Seed funding for our sector in the UK from the leading investors in UK HealthTech, including the only NHS-anchored Venture Capital fund. PocDoc was incubated in the NHS and works with the NHS across the country, screening thousands of patients in community, workplaces and home. I sit on two NHS Advisory Boards that support SMEs and increasing diversity in the NHS ecosystem. For PocDoc media enquiries, please email pocdoc@threesixty.co.

We're launching the second season of this based on the amazing success of season 1, with multiple companies securing funding following their calls with me.
