The Evidence is Clear: It Works

Independent evaluations shows that The Sound Doctor’s film-based education consistently delivers measurable improvements in understanding, confidence, behaviour, and health outcomes. In evaluations across four NHS regions, up to 93% of patients reported fewer GP visits, and up to 98% felt more confident managing their condition. Over 95% found our content improved their understanding, and most viewed five or more films, often returning multiple times. Our content isn’t just well-used – it’s valued.Patients describe the service as “really good information – much better than anything else online” and “a useful resource not already available at my GP surgery.” Others told us it helped them “go back to work much quicker” and that “demonstrations and breathing tips made a real difference.” From reducing demand on primary care to increasing physical activity, dietary changes and self-management, the data shows we’re not just delivering content – we’re changing lives.

I have been diagnosed for 5 years and in all that time, I have never seen the sam GP twice. Now I’ve done your course and watched all these films, it’s the first time I actually understand what my condition is all about.
