Hey, we're Asterix‑👋
We’re redefining how modern healthcare is delivered by enabling highly-qualified doctors with best-in-class tech. Pretty exciting, dare we say!
Why are we working on this?
We're mission-driven and care deeply about what we do.
Sounds exciting? Click the button.
We're solving the biggest problem in healthcare: The lack of qualified doctors.
You know this is a massive problem. Millions of patients can't get appointments with their GP, and millions more are stuck in hospital waitlists, waiting for treatment. Patients suffer from preventable conditions that could've been caught and proactively managed.
It's no longer good enough.
At Asterix we're pioneering a new model of care where qualified international doctors work remotely to support UK healthcare providers, starting with GP Practices. Our novel approach is enabled by new regulation, and we are the only company in the UK approved to use it.
At the same time we're building our DoctorOS platform, which makes our doctors much more productive than a traditional doctor by automating the busywork!
We're backed by Entrepreneur First and just closed an oversubscribed funding round with top-tier investors + incredible angels. More soon 🤫
