EQ Group is thrilled to announce the latest addition to its portfolio of companies: Clinically Sound, a UK-based healthcare recruitment agency dedicated to making a meaningful impact in the industry.
Founded on principles of compassion, integrity, and diversity, Clinically Sound embodies the spirit of resilience and excellence in healthcare recruitment. Led by founder Lou Healy, Clinically Sound’s journey is deeply personal, rooted in Lou’s own experience of recovery and self-discovery.
“Clinically Sound was born from a genuine desire to give back to the services that aided my recovery from drugs & alcohol and subsequently my ADHD diagnosis at aged 42. We show our gratitude by offering reduced rates for all our registered, charitable services within these struggling, high demand sectors,” said Lou Healy, Founder of Clinically Sound. “Our main goal isn’t just about financial success; we’re not striving to be the biggest provider, but rather the most ethical one. As a boutique agency, we pride ourselves on our diversity, authenticity, and being genuine down-to-earth Northerners who have a wealth of industry experience. We understand the value of building relationships based on trust and likability, qualities that the team and I possess in abundance.”
Clinically Sound’s commitment to celebrating diversity extends beyond rhetoric to tangible actions, including offering reduced rates for the charity sector and supporting organisations that make a difference. The company is dedicated to creating inclusive and supportive environments for individuals of all backgrounds, empowering them to thrive in their careers and beyond.
“We are exceptionally proud to be partnering with Lou Healy, a deeply respected recruitment leader, to launch a joint venture recruitment company within the Mental Health, Psychology, and Wellbeing space, Clinically Sound,” said James Doyle, Founder and CEO at EQ Group. “Our ambition is to support the personal and professional growth of the next generation of ethical entrepreneurs. Those who will bring new ideas, diverse approaches to culture and success, alongside a commitment to making a truly positive impact in the markets we operate within.”
“Lou personifies all of the above and more. They have a clear and exciting vision for how we operate when partnering with our customers and candidates. While most importantly of all, how we build a culture that successfully cultivates high performance, trust, and growth, with wellbeing at the core of everything we do. Something we believe will bring a new level of sustainability and subsequently performance to the modern-day recruiter,” added James. “Lou also brings fun and charm to the leadership role as standard, is a pleasure to be around, and I am looking forward to building a long-lasting relationship with them on this incredible journey.”
