#029 Life of a Doctor-CEO — Dr Ben Maruthappu MBE (CEO Cera Care)

What's it like running a company which has raised $90M?

Dr Ben Maruthappu is the co-founder and CEO of Cera Care — a technology enabled home care company.

I could speak about Ben’s achievements and accolades for hours, but to give you a whistle stop tour — he is a successful doctorpreneur, has published some very influential papers, and has worked in health policy — perhaps most notably — he was an advisor to Simon Stevens (CEO of NHS England).

Ben was awarded an MBE for services to Health and Care technology in the 2020 Queen’s New Year Honours List.

We talk about how Ben got to where he is along with what he learned at every step. We also dive quite deep into what it’s actually like to be CEO of such a large company. This is one of my favourite interviews — because Ben is incredibly candid and gives lots of useful advice. I hope you enjoy.
