About us
Provide Wellbeing was formed in 2017 by its parent company (Provide Community) and aims to bridge the gap between traditional private healthcare and the NHS. While private healthcare has not always been accessible for all, Provide Wellbeing prides itself on offering self-pay services that afford people a choice about when to access the care and treatment they need, and in a way which puts them at the centre of how that care is delivered, treating each person as an individual. In the current climate, where the provision of services by the NHS is under so much strain, Provide Wellbeing looks to compliment the NHS through a combined offering of both private healthcare and a range of NHS services but without the frequently long waiting times.
We aim to deliver stress-free healthcare by seeing our services through our customers' eyes, establishing Provide Wellbeing centres delivering a hybrid of self-pay and NHS services, and specialising in what we do well and innovating to shape the future. When you work with us, you can expect a culture where each member of the team knows and feels truly valued as an individual and recognises that significance that each one of us has in delivering care where we constantly strive to exceed expectations. As part of Provide CIC, we are committed to making sure that all of our services are safe, responsive, and high quality.
