We are delighted to announce we are establishing a new external affairs department, to be led by former government minister Mark Fletcher.
Mark Fletcher was a member of His Majesty’s Government until the general election in July. He served as a senior advisor to two chancellors and the business secretary before joining the government whips’ office. He worked in medical technology before his time in politics.
After a seminal year for the company, it was recently announced that Feedback Medical has been nominated in two categories at the forthcoming HSJ Partnership Awards for our ground-breaking digital partnership with Queen Victoria Hospital in Sussex.
The nominations, for Best Contribution to Improving the Efficiency of NHS Services, and for Most Effective Contribution to Clinical Redesign, recognise many of the partnership’s achievements, including a 90% reduction in the number of outpatient appointments required using a new operating model.
“I am absolutely thrilled that Mark is coming on board to create and head up this new team. He was a hugely popular figure in Westminster, has a relentless approach to work and will add a huge amount to our team.
“This is such an exciting time for our company. The success of the Sussex partnership has opened many eyes to the sort of productivity improvements that can be made using the right digital solutions. Both the Government and the NHS are crying out for easy-to-use products that can deliver huge improvements, which is exactly what we offer. We want to give the NHS a new operating model that is better for patients and clinicians.
“We’ve gained so many new stakeholders and audiences over the past few months and as we continue to grow it’s important we ensure we’re ready for all the next phases of Feedback’s journey.”

“This is such an exciting and relevant company at such a crucial time in the NHS. The way they reimagine healthcare, putting patients first through digital solutions, is revolutionary. I couldn’t wait to be a part of the team.
“Feedback Medical offer solutions to some of the biggest challenges of our time. Reforming how we deliver healthcare to put the patient first and provide better outcomes, improving productivity in the NHS and giving clinicians easy-to-use technology. I worked very closely with the NHS in my previous role, so I know the challenges they are facing.
“I wanted my next role to be as transformative and impactful as my last, and I genuinely believe Feedback’s products and mindset could transform healthcare in the UK.
“Being asked to establish and run an external affairs department is a great honour, and I can’t wait to be working under Tom’s visionary leadership.”
