Following up — VO2 Master for our PT partner network
Body
Hi Donna,
Hope you're well. It's Ade Whetton from DoctoriumGP — we spoke back in September about the VO2 Master. Apologies for going quiet; we've been focused on getting our PT partner programme off the ground and it's now at the stage where VO2 max testing is the next piece of the puzzle.
Quick update on where we are:
- We're a CQC-registered private clinic in Derby (Dr Gemma Lewis is our clinical lead)
- We already offer Tanita medical-grade body composition and Stride DNA testing
- We're building a network of PT partners across Derbyshire who refer clients for testing
- VO2 max is the missing piece — and the VO2 Master is our first choice because of portability (our PTs need something they can demo in-gym, not a lab cart)
My original ask still stands: we'd like to trial a unit first before committing to a larger order. If the testing days work and our PT partners see the demand, we're looking at 4-8 devices over 12 months.
Would you still be open to that Zoom demo with Dr Garry Palmer? I'm flexible on timing — mornings or evenings work best.
Best,
Ade Whetton

PNOE Clinic Partnership — CQC-registered clinic in Derby
Body
Hi there,
I'm Ade Whetton from DoctoriumGP, a CQC-registered private health clinic in Derby, UK. We specialise in metabolic health, menopause care, and body composition analysis.
I'm interested in your clinic partnership programme for the PNOE metabolic analyser. We're building out our testing capabilities and VO2 max / metabolic analysis is the next service we want to offer.
Our setup:
- CQC-registered clinic with GP clinical lead (Dr Gemma Lewis)
- Already offering Tanita MC-580 body composition and Stride DNA testing
- Building a PT partner network across Derbyshire (target: 20-40 PTs referring clients)
- Patient demographic: predominantly women 35-55, men 30-55, focused on metabolic optimisation
Questions:
1. Do you offer a trial or demo programme for UK clinics?
2. What's the pricing structure for the PNOE device (purchase vs lease)?
3. Do you have UK-based support and calibration?
4. What's the typical ROI timeline for a clinic our size?
We're comparing a few options but PNOE stands out for the software platform and the clinical credibility. Happy to jump on a call to discuss.
Best,
Ade Whetton

COSMED Fitmate Pro enquiry — CQC clinic in Derby
Body
Hi,
I'm Ade Whetton from DoctoriumGP, a CQC-registered private health clinic in Derby. We're looking to add VO2 max and metabolic testing to our clinical services and I'd like to discuss the COSMED Fitmate Pro.
We currently offer medical-grade body composition analysis (Tanita MC-580) and DNA testing (Stride). VO2 max is the natural next step — our patients and PT partners are asking for it.
A few questions:
1. What's the current pricing for the Fitmate Pro in the UK?
2. Do you offer demo/trial units for clinics to evaluate?
3. What training and ongoing support is included?
4. Are there finance options available?
5. What consumables/ongoing costs should we budget for?
Our use case is both clinical (metabolic health assessments for patients) and commercial (PT partners referring clients for testing days). We'd be looking at steady utilisation from day one.
Happy to visit you in Chester if it would help to see the unit in person — we're about 90 minutes away.
Best,
Ade Whetton

Hi Ben,
I'm Ade Whetton from DoctoriumGP, a CQC-registered private health clinic in Derby. We're expanding our testing capabilities and I'm interested in the COSMED range for VO2 max and metabolic analysis.
We already run a Tanita MC-580 for body composition and Stride for DNA testing. Adding metabolic/VO2 max testing completes our offering. Our clinical lead is Dr Gemma Lewis (GP).
We're also building a PT partner network across Derbyshire — PTs refer their clients to us for testing. VO2 max is the most-requested service we don't yet offer.
Could we discuss:
- Which COSMED model best fits a private clinic setting (Fitmate Pro vs K5)?
- UK pricing and finance options
- Demo or trial availability
- Clinical validation studies we could reference in our patient materials
Happy to jump on a call whenever suits.
Best,
Ade Whetton

VO2 max testing days at our Derby clinic?
Body
Hi,
I'm Ade from DoctoriumGP, a private health clinic in Derby. We're interested in running VO2 max testing days at our clinic and saw you're based in Nottingham — practically neighbours.
We already offer body composition and DNA testing, and our PT partners keep asking about VO2 max. Before we invest in our own equipment (looking at £5-6k+), we'd like to prove the demand by running some testing days with a mobile provider.
Would you be open to:
1. Running a testing day at our clinic (we'd fill the slots through our PT network)?
2. A regular monthly booking if demand is there?
3. Some kind of referral arrangement?
We could easily fill 8-12 slots per testing day from our existing PT partners and patient base. Happy to discuss the commercial side — whatever works for both of us.
Best,
Ade Whetton

Metabolic testing equipment for private clinic — options and pricing
Body
Hi,
I'm Ade Whetton from DoctoriumGP, a CQC-registered private health clinic in Derby. We're looking to add VO2 max and metabolic testing to our services and I understand you distribute metabolic analysis equipment in the UK.
Could you help with:
1. What metabolic analysers do you currently carry (Cortex, others)?
2. Do you have anything in the £3,000-8,000 range suitable for a private clinic?
3. Are refurbished or ex-demo units ever available?
4. Do you offer on-site demos? We're about an hour from your Birmingham base.
Our use case is a mix of clinical metabolic assessments and PT-referred fitness testing. We're not a university lab — we need something practical, portable where possible, and cost-effective for a small clinic.
Happy to visit you in Birmingham if that's easier.
Best,
Ade Whetton
