Business

LINC Medical Systems Ltd is founded by Stephen Bailey

Stephen Bailey launched LINC Medical Systems to bring innovative Plasma Apheresis therapies and Urology products to the UK National Health Service. Stephen is a nurse by training and has worked in ICU and Coronary Care in Leicester hospitals and LOROS (The Leicestershire Hospice). Before starting LINC Medical systems he worked for 8 years at Gambro (now Baxter) as a Product Specialist, selling Haemodialysis, Peritoneal Dialysis, plasma apheresis and CRRT products. His clinical background helps him to understand the needs of our customers.

Distribution of the Infomed HF440 plasma therapy machine.

LINC Medical took on distribution of the Infomed HF440 plasma therapy machine. The HF440 was the only machine to offer Double Filtration Plasma Pheresis at that time in the UK. Double Filtration is a treatment which filters the patient’s own plasma with a second filter. It semi selectively removes the pathological proteins and returns the remainder of the patient’s normal plasma. This reduces dependence on donor plasma lowering the risk of adverse reactions. LINC Medical is the largest supplier of Double Filtration treatments and the second largest supplier of plasma apheresis therapies in the UK.

Distributors for Yushin all-silicone catheters.

Yushin catheters are made of biocompatible silicone, offer an open tipped design and an ‘Unibal integral balloon.’ These features have become very popular among our customers due to reduced trauma on insertion and removal and reduced catheter blockage.

A year for growth

LINC Medical became 100% owned by Stephen Bailey with 8 employees. LINC Medical moved into new premises in Countesthorpe, Leicestershire.

A fresh face for a growing company

LINC Medical was rebranded in 2013 with a new logo.
