DUNMOW PRIVATE MEDICAL CLINIC
Healthy Body, Healthy Mind
The Team
Sandy and Pallav
Founders
Sandy and Pallav, the wife and husband team behind the Clinic, always had a dream to have a clinic where top-quality medical care and conversations could be delivered in a comfortable and relaxed manner. They envisioned it being timely, hassle-free, with nice ambience, and in a convenient setting. The Old Exchange building in Great Dunmow provided that ideal location, and as two of their three children left the nest, the perfect opportunity arose.
Entrepreneurs at 50, they are most excited and proud to bring a choice to the people of Dunmow and surrounding areas. Their ambition is to keep it all rather plain and simple: good care when you need it, by experienced clinicians, in a manner that is not rushed.
​
Till recently, Sandy was a full-time mum and a homemaker with background in Economics and a PG Diploma in Business Management, and Pallav is a Consultant in Emergency Medicine in the NHS. Together with a strong team of clinicians they feel the Clinic can address most issues patients face and are often let down.
