Built on a referral-led model and serving medical professionals across the UK, Medical Finance has now been acquired following a competitive sale process.
Founded in 2013 by John McFarlan and based in East Ayrshire, the business provides a range of accountancy services including payroll, VAT returns and financial reporting, to medical professionals and their families.
Operating entirely remotely, it has developed a strong active client base, the majority of whom are retained on an ongoing basis.
The strength of those relationships has been central to the business, with new clients consistently generated through word of mouth rather than formal marketing. This has created a stable and dependable revenue profile, underpinned by long-standing engagement with consultants and other healthcare professionals.
With retirement plans in place, the shareholders brought the business to market. The process, led by Associate Director Sara Thomasson, generated strong engagement — resulting in 24 meetings and eight offers before a buyer was selected and a successful outcome secured.
The buyer, Blockshift Partners, led by Daniel Amoakoh, approached the opportunity as its first acquisition, with ambitions to build on the existing platform through additional resource and a more structured growth strategy.
The deal provides continuity for the client base while creating scope for further development, with a handover period in place to support a smooth transition into new ownership.
The Knightsbridge team wishes John a very happy retirement, and every success to Daniel and Blockshift Partners as Medical Finance moves into its next phase.
