CEO, TheSocialMedwork. Access to Best Medicines for Everyone shaping a Healthier World

Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands

This year, over a million patients and doctors have reached out to us for help. So far, we have been able to deliver thousands of new medicines to patients, physicians and pharmacies in 90 countries across four continents. And every life is worth fighting for!

I’m the Chief Empowerment Officer at the disruptive health startup <a href="http://TheSocialMedwork.com">TheSocialMedwork.com</a> — the first Search Engine and Access Platform for the latest lifesaving medicines around the World.

The SocialMedwork operates 24/7 to empower patients and doctors globally to access the newest and most innovative medicines that are not yet available within their country of residence, but have been approved elsewhere.

Here at TheSocialMedwork, we love life. We believe people can live longer and healthier lives when they have the fastest access to the best and latest health-innovations. By utilising existing legal processes in place, understanding regulations, engaging with medicines innovators and our patients directly, we can unlock possibilities and help patients gain access to effective medicines, regardless of who they are or where they live.
