New GP solution, Medicus, integrates FDB Multilex

Medicus Health recently announced that its solution has gone live at Wilmslow Health Centre. Medicus is the first new GP system in the NHS in over 25 years and Wilmslow Health Centre successfully moved from its previous GP system to Medicus. 

Medicus combines core clinical functionality with integrated communications, online consultations, prescribing and document management — all within a modern, user-friendly platform designed around the needs of today’s primary care teams.  

In April 2025, the solution was granted full roll-out approval by NHS England following a series of successful First of Type implementations across GP practices in South West and South East London.

Emile Axelrad, CEO of Medicus said: "We are so pleased to have gone live with our solution at Wilmslow Health Centre. Our partnership with FDB Multilex is essential to the success of Medicus. Multilex powers dosage suggestions for prescribers and lets us show comprehensive drug safety alerts and warnings based on the patient record."

Dr Amar Ahmed, GP Partner, Wilmslow Health Centre, said: "As GPs, we need technology that supports our clinical decisions, enhances patient safety, and streamlines our workflow. Medicus has delivered on all these fronts, and we are proud to be the first practice in the UK to embrace this next-generation solution." 

Darren Nichols, Managing Director at FDB, said: “We are delighted to collaborate with Medicus and support their entry into the primary care market. The integration of FDB’s Multilex prescribing decision support enhances the capabilities of this next-generation GP system, driving greater prescribing accuracy and improving patient safety across primary care. The successful go-live at Wilmslow Health Centre demonstrates the value of our shared dedication to advancing healthcare and delivering better outcomes for patients.”
