What producers, line producers and production managers ask us before a shoot.
Bespoke medical support for film and television productions, concerts and tours: complex care for lead actors, producers, directors, world-famous singers and performers, and senior creatives, with primary care, trauma and injury care, rapid diagnostics, rehabilitation, return-to-work and insurance liaison, and one point of medical leadership for the whole care pathway.
A set or unit medic provides first aid and routine cover on the day. A² comes in when something goes wrong: a lead actor is injured, a director falls ill, or a performer can’t go on. Our senior doctors assess quickly, coordinate diagnostics, specialists and hospital care if needed, and manage recovery and return to work, so the show gets back on the road with as little disruption as possible. We work alongside a production’s set medics rather than replacing them.
Yes. We provide confidential, rapid assessment and end-to-end care for world-famous singers and performers on tour and at live events, coordinating everything from on-the-day treatment to specialists and hospital care, so concerts run as smoothly as possible.
We are based in London and support productions on location worldwide, including Rome, Madrid, Monaco, New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Atlanta, Dubai and Riyadh, working with leading local clinicians and hospitals.
A² is led by Dr Akbar De Medici (MBBS, BSc, PhD, MRCS), Chief Medical Officer, and Dr Angad Saluja (MBBS, BSc, MRCGP, FRCGP), Medical Director and Lead GP, supported by a broader team of experienced clinicians. In every location we work, we draw on an established network of doctors, nurses and allied health professionals, from physiotherapists and osteopaths to acute hospital consultants, so the right expertise is available locally, whatever the case.
Discretion is our highest priority. Many of the people we care for are high-profile actors, directors and executives, so every case is handled on a strict need-to-know basis. Medical information is shared only with the patient’s explicit consent: productions are told what they need to know about availability and fitness to work, not the diagnosis. We never discuss clients, productions or cases publicly, we are happy to work under a production’s NDA, and every clinician we work with is bound by professional duties of confidentiality and UK data protection law.
Yes. A² is known to many production houses and studios around the world, with a reputation for discreet, dependable care that gets productions back on track. We work with studios, insurers and production managers on return-to-work planning so that care supports both safety and production continuity.
