Ben Reed – Digital Operations Manager, LaingBuisson

Ben began his career at Intuition Communication, the original publisher of Private Healthcare UK, Treatment Abroad, Harley Street Guide, and Self Help UK. Intuition was headed by Keith Pollard and its medical advisor was leading consultant oncologist Dr Nick Plowman.

Ben was also involved in creating Intuition Connect, the UK’s largest database of private medical professionals at the time, and helped to launch HarleyStreet.com and two independent review platforms for patients. He still acts as moderator for these review sites today.

After LaingBuisson acquired Intuition, Ben took overall responsibility for data and content for GoPrivate.com, Treatment Abroad, Fertility Treatment Abroad, and Doctor Internet (an Arabic private healthcare website).

Each year, Ben leads the collection of over 5,000 private treatment prices for LaingBuisson’s Self Pay Prices Report, and oversees regular updates to the consultant and clinic listings featured on the websites.

With over 15 years of experience in private healthcare publishing, Ben specialises in making complex healthcare information easy to understand and accessible for patients researching private treatment options.
