Liam Loftus, co-founder

Liam is a GP Trainee based in Cambridge.

He developed a passion for clinical leadership through undertaking roles such as Junior Doctor Mess President at the Royal Liverpool Hospital, and Oxford Clinical School President, and through completing leadership qualifications with the University of Cambridge, Institute of Leadership and Management, and the NHS Leadership Academy. He has used these as a platform to lead projects in areas such as patient safety, workforce development, and service improvement, presenting work both nationally and internationally. More recently, in his role as Leadership Fellow with Health Education East of England, he has co-led the development of The Leadership Ladder; a junior doctor-specific leadership development platform, which now forms the core offer for leadership development for all 5000 trainees in the East of England.

As a future GP, Liam’s desire is to take a step back from his consulting room, and consider how we can improve the health and wellbeing of all patients; locally, regionally, and nationally. In 2021/22, he completed the National Medical Director’s Clinical Fellow Scheme, working with the Primary Care Team at NHS England and NHS Improvement. He focussed specifically on his two key passions: the role that Primary Care plays in reducing health inequalities, and shaping the vision for the future of Primary Care.
