Dr Ed Coats is a highly regarded speaker in both the private and public sector. Ed has an ability to humorously relay his own incredible achievements to inspire and entertain his audiences.  He combines his vast experience working in healthcare with numerous other adventurous projects to motivate teams and leaders throughout business.

Ed is passionate about efficiency and building success through strong teams, which are critical to clinical improvement and optimising outcomes. He regularly speaks on patient safety and delivering quality across all healthcare sectors to audiences of medical professionals across the world.

Ed currently works as an IVF and sub-fertility specialist in Oxford and is the co-founder and director of  Total Fertility, a popular digital platform designed for patients looking to compare fertility clinics across the UK and Europe. This start up has grown rapidly as patients turn to this easy online clinic comparison tool to reduce some of the stress involved in choosing an IVF clinic.

Ed says “it has been a real challenge to take Total Fertility from a simple concept to a sustainable business. So many core skills relied upon in adventure and medicine have not only been transferable to enterprise and business but essential to our progress”.
