Digital healthcare platform marks milestone with 'strong' growth

A digital healthcare platform is celebrating its 30th anniversary following a year of strong growth under new ownership.

Patient.info, founded in 1996, became part of UK-based digital health company Navigate Health in May 2025, bringing together the two businesses around technology-led healthcare solutions and editorial content.

Since the acquisition, Patient.info has recorded a 45 per cent increase in revenue alongside customer growth and the launch of new products.

These include an NHS data-driven healthcare insights platform and healthcare jobs portal, complementing its existing healthcare directory and clinical trials database.

The platform now attracts eight million monthly visitors and features around 11,000 pages of healthcare content, alongside 770,000 subscribers and 284 active patient communities.

Its content includes patient information leaflets, medicine guides and professional references, with the business continuing to prioritise human-written, clinically validated health information.

Named the top GP-recommended health website by Which? in 2025, Patient.info is also regularly cited by the NHS and GOV.UK.

Thomas Porteus, director of Patient.info, said: “Celebrating 30 years is a proud moment for everyone who has been part of our journey. 

“Our success is built on listening to our patients and professionals, responding to the changing needs of healthcare and continually investing in innovation.

“Navigate Health has enabled us to build on those foundations, invest more into the platform and accelerate the development of new products, putting us in a strong position for the future. 

“We are working on some exciting features and resources which will mean we can reach even more people on their healthcare journey – helping them go from searching symptoms to taking action via trusted content, personalised pathways, and seamless access to relevant services.”
