Preparing for Brexit with MidMeds
With growing uncertainty about the impacts of Brexit on London general practice, we know that some practices are thinking about stockpiling essential supplies.
The Londonwide Buying Group's recommended medical supplies provider, MidMeds, has increased stock levels for hundreds of the most purchased products, including pharmaceuticals, to help give practices peace of mind.
Place orders in advance, schedule deliveries for when needed, and remove the need to stockpile supplies when storage space is at a premium.
