About MediTalk

You've lived it. We're here to listen.

If you live with a condition, or care for someone who does, you know things no doctor, researcher or algorithm ever could. MediTalk exists so that knowledge actually shapes the medicines, treatments and tools designed for people like you.

Hands joined together in solidarity
Why we exist

Healthcare has been built for patients, rarely with them.

Treatments get designed. Patient leaflets get written. Dosing schedules get set. Trial criteria get drafted, most of it without ever asking the people who'll actually live with them what works, what doesn't, and what gets in the way.

The result? Medicines that are technically effective but practically miserable to take. Support materials nobody reads. Caregivers exhausted by gaps no one thought to fill.

We exist to close that gap, one honest conversation at a time.

Our promises to you

Four things you can hold us to.

  • You're never just a data point

    A real person sets up the study, listens to your story, asks follow-up questions. You're a contributor, not a survey response.

  • Your time has value, and we pay for it

    Every study is paid. We say thank-you with cash, vouchers or charitable donations (your choice) at fair industry rates.

  • Your privacy isn't a checkbox, it's a foundation

    Your details are encrypted, anonymized in research outputs, and never sold. We only contact you about studies that match, and you can leave at any moment.

  • You decide what you share

    If a question feels too personal, skip it. If a study isn't right, say no. Your involvement is voluntary, every step of the way.

What it actually looks like

No clinics. No trials. Just a few of the typical ways people take part, on the format that fits you.

10–20 minutes

Online surveys

Quick, structured questions you answer at your own pace, from your phone or laptop.

45–60 minutes

One-to-one interviews

A friendly Zoom call with a researcher who wants to understand your story. No right answers, no judgement.

60–90 minutes

Group discussions

Join a small group of patients or caregivers to explore a topic together, guided by a researcher.

3–5 days, ~15 min/day

Online discussion boards

Post short reflections over a few days alongside other participants. Async, no live calls, fits around real life.

A few minutes per day

Diaries & daily check-ins

Short daily entries that capture the rhythms of life with your condition, one day at a time.

20–40 minutes

Feedback on health materials

Review leaflets, websites, app designs or patient information, and tell researchers what actually helps.

60+ minutes

Sharing your patient journey

A deeper, story-led conversation about your diagnosis, treatment and everything in between.

Days to weeks

Wearable or app-based studies

Use a simple wearable or app to capture everyday health data. Research you barely notice you're doing.

  • Patient leaflets & packaging
  • Clinical trial design
  • Treatment & support pathways
Our community

Two communities. One mission.

MediTalk exists for two groups of people whose voices are rarely at the table when healthcare decisions get made. We invite both in, and we make sure the industry listens.

Community 01

People living with a medical condition

You know things no doctor, researcher or algorithm ever could. The diagnosis, the side effects, the late-night Googling, the appointments that ran late. Your story helps shape medicines, trials and support that actually work for the people taking them.

Join as patient
Community 02

Caregivers

Partners, parents, children, friends. The people who hold it together when someone they love is unwell. Your perspective surfaces the gaps no one else sees, the moments where the system could do better.

Join as caregiver

Newly diagnosed or twenty years in. Common conditions or rare ones. Every kind of family, every kind of life. There's space here for your story.

"Living with this for ten years, I thought no one was listening. Turns out, someone was."

If you've ever thought "I wish someone would actually listen", we are.

Registration takes about 3 minutes. We'll only get in touch when something matches you, never before.
