 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Working with the Patient Guard team has been a great experience throughout our MHRA and ISO 13485 documentation journey.

Their expertise, structured approach, and practical guidance helped our team build a robust quality management system while keeping us aligned with regulatory expectations. The collaboration was professional, responsive, and focused on finding solutions rather than simply identifying issues.

A special thank you to Alex and Steve for their outstanding coordination, responsiveness, and continuous support throughout the project. They were always approachable, provided valuable feedback, and worked closely with our team to resolve challenges efficiently. Their commitment made a significant difference in keeping our documentation effort on track.

I highly recommend Patient Guard to any healthcare or MedTech organization looking for experienced regulatory and quality system partners for MHRA, ISO 13485, and broader medical device compliance initiatives.

Thank you again to the entire Patient Guard team for being such reliable partners.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. STEPPER design, manufacture & distribute eyewear across the globe.  With the increasingly complex landscape concerning the placing of Mecial Devices onto the market, we realised we needed professional guidance. We found Patient Guard via a simple internet search and are delighted we did!

They provide a pragmatic solution to our needs, are totally reliable & always available to answer our (often simplistic) questions. They are highly efficient & responsive to what is a changing picture in our world and nothing is too much trouble.

We have a much better understanding of regulatory affairs and our responsibilities as manufacturers & distributors and they support us in navigating the requirements in different territories.

Updating our Declaration of Conformity, ensuring our labelling is compliant and acting as our PRRC are the key areas of their service for us.
