Dudley Integrated Health and Care NHS Trust is Englands smallest NHS Trust, providing primary care services, including two GP surgeries.
The Trust was formed in 2020 and in 2021 GP and Acting Medical Director Dr Lucy Martin was given the task to ‘start a research department’.
GP Dr Lloyd Baron joined a few months later and together we share our journey from ‘zero to delivery of commercial research on behalf of the West Midlands’ within 18 months
