We are Medical Protection, the world’s leading member-owned, not-for-profit medical defence organisation (MDO) for doctors, dentists, and healthcare professionals.
Medical defence means assisting members with the wide range of legal and ethical problems that can arise from their professional practice. This can include assistance with clinical negligence claims, complaints, medical and dental council inquiries, legal and ethical dilemmas, disciplinary procedures, inquests, and fatal accident inquiries.
Founded in 1892, we support the professional interests of more than 300,000 members around the world, helping to protect careers, reputations, and finances.
