What Leger does

Leger (legally The Leger Clinic Limited) is a UK-based specialist private healthcare provider focused on testosterone replacement therapy and men's and women's hormone health, founded in 1987 by Dr Doug Savage and operating as a subsidiary of Medichecks following a 2024 acquisition. Originally established in Doncaster to treat erectile dysfunction, the clinic pioneered TRT in the UK in 1998 after recognising that many men were non-responsive to Viagra due to underlying low testosterone, and pivoted from face-to-face to fully remote online consultations during COVID-19, enabling nationwide service delivery across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. The clinic is the only UK TRT provider holding a CQC Outstanding rating (March 2022) and combines three specialist doctors, three Advanced Nurse Practitioners, a senior prescribing nurse, and dedicated support staff to deliver multidisciplinary hormone care.

Core products and technology centre on home-based finger-prick blood testing kits analysed by UKAS-accredited laboratories (results in 2-5 days, from £19), doctor-led consultations (£149 initial, £59 for transfers) reviewing free testosterone, total testosterone, and SHBG, and multiple TRT modalities including injectable, topical gel/cream, and Kyzatrex oral testosterone undecanoate capsules that bypass first-pass liver metabolism via intestinal lymphatic absorption. Additional services include erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation treatment, HRT for menopause (including testosterone therapy for women), weight loss integrated with TRT, the ADAM Low Testosterone self-assessment quiz, an educational Health Hub blog, and the My Leger patient portal.

The business model blends transactional revenue (consultations, blood tests, prescription medications) with subscription-based annual memberships (minimum 6-month initial term, monthly or annual billing with annual discounts) that provide recurring prescriptions via partner online pharmacies, organised repeat blood testing, and ongoing clinical support. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via a website optimised for organic search, a self-assessment funnel, and active social channels (Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn), targeting men aged 30+ with low testosterone symptoms, women aged 45-55 experiencing menopause, and existing TRT patients seeking to switch providers.
