Episode 25: Dr Murray Ellender - Asynchrony (The New Normal), Mentoring Medical Entrepreneurship and How To (Almost Single-handedly) Disrupt (Positively Speaking) 70years Of Doctor vs Patient In The National Health Service....For The Better?

Dr Murray Ellender is a General Practitioner in South London, co-founder and chief executive officer (CEO) of  eConsult Health. Murray qualified from King’s College London Medical School back in 1999 and trained in Emergency Medicine before starting a career in General Practice. He joined the progressive team at the Hurley Clinic in 2006 and led on urgent care for the group for a number of years.
