National law firm Clarke Willmott LLP has advised health assessment and laboratory testing business Inuvi and its newly formed subsidiary Plymouth Health Limited on the acquisition of Express Diagnostics Ltd.

Inuvi, based in Wokingham in Berkshire, delivers over 100,000 health assessments and phlebotomy visits every year through its national network of mobile health practitioners, and completes millions of blood tests at its laboratory in Gloucester.

Plymouth-based Express Diagnostics is the UK’s largest provider of remote Holter analysis and electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation. It specialises in providing cardio-respiratory diagnostic services as well as audiology and health screening services.

The Clarke Willmott team involved in the transaction was led by Simon Thomas, managing director of the firm’s commercial services division, with support from partner Bethan Evans (Banking), associate Sally Grech (Banking) and solicitor Megan James (Corporate).

Simon Thomas, who is based in Clarke Willmott’s Bristol office, said: “We are immensely proud to continue our work with Inuvi group and to have assisted Inuvi on this latest acquisition of Express Diagnostics, and to support the Inuvi Group as it continues to grow.”

“We have no doubt that this strategic acquisition will further drive Inuvi’s growth and increase the range of services it can offer, further establishing it as a leading provider of expert diagnostic services.”

Jonathan Benton, CEO of Inuvi said “Simon and the team at Clarke Willmott played a pivotal role and we were delighted to work with them on this transaction. Their guidance, support and commitment to delivering exceptional service was invaluable and their collaborative approach ensured a smooth and successful acquisition process.”
