Who is LivingCare?

We are a private healthcare company founded in 2002 by Dr Stephen Feldman – a practising GP. What makes us unique is our approach to health. We treat private patients and NHS referrals to exceptionally high standards – without GP referrals being required, and with short reporting times. Our locations across Sheffield and Leeds offer treatment closer to home, and outside of hospital environments, with multiple services all under one roof – and world-class imaging and advanced treatments in purpose-built facilities like the Canon Medical Arena, our recent joint venture with Canon.

Where can I get LivingCare treatment?

Our centres at Thorpe Park, Canon Medical Arena, Robin Lane Medical Centre, Fountain Medical Centre and Northgate Medical Centre are already helping patients from the community and beyond with private treatments, private GP and NHS services. This means patients can be treated quicker and sooner, and receive treatments that might not be funded by the NHS – adding capacity to the national system and giving locals more choice.

How does LivingCare work?

We work across GP practices and within our own centres in Leeds and Sheffield as the LivingCare group, a structure that offers more for patients. This means we have deep experience in our specialities, the local facilities to deliver treatment, and a single point of call for a seamless, great-value experience. At its heart, our group offers patients the best care, accountability, reliability and empowerment. Patients can contact us directly, paying through health insurance or personally, or taking the NHS route – and no matter which route they take, they’ll get the highest levels of care possible.
