How we work?

With a rich tapestry of experience in healthcare, we excel at revealing the complexities and harms associated with medical treatments and practices. Our evaluations of regulatory evidence concerning pharmaceutical drugs and medical devices empower us to unearth vital truths that often lie beneath the surface.

Grounded in robust evidence, our work intertwines scientific rigour with our extensive clinical expertise. This approach ensures that our insights are not only credible but also deeply aligned with societal values that should underpin healthcare.

By bringing diverse voices and perspectives into our discussions, we strive to foster enriched conversations that pave the way for a safer and more informed healthcare.

All of this is resource-dependent, and TTE Foundation supporters go beyond subscriptions to provide us with very tangible support to enable more of our investigative work, for which we are very grateful.
