Our Story

From the shores of Vietnam to the banks of the Brisbane River, our journey has been as diverse as the organisations we partner with.

End-to-End Workplace Health

We were a single-clinic business under the direction of our founder, Dr Hanh Nguyen, a refugee of the Vietnam War.

Today, we’ve grown to 8 clinics and more than 200 staff, but our focus remains the same:

Clinical excellence, delivered under a progressive care model in partnership with employers.

This is our story.

The RediMed story

Our Evolution From 2009 to Today

1975
Background
From Vietnam to Australia
A homeless refugee in streets of Europe

Hanh Nguyen who was living in Ho Chi Minh City (formerly known as Saigon) Vietnam, tragically lost his parents during the Vietnam War and at just 14 years old, he was forced to flee Vietnam by boat.

His destination was Western Australia – an opportunity for safety that lies across more than 5,500 kilometres of ocean.

During his journey, his vessel was shipwrecked, but eventually, Hanh arrived in Perth, totally alone and in a new country.

Introduction

In school, Hanh excels.

He learns English and enrols at the University of Western Australia, graduating with a Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBSS).

His motivation is simple: give back to his new country by helping the people who need it most.

Over the next few years, Dr Hanh completes advanced training in plastic and reconstructive surgery, becoming a Fellow of the Australasian College of Surgeons.

His next step: travel to the United States.

In the Midwest, he undertakes a fellowship in hand surgery and a tenure as Assistant Professor at the Medical College of Wisconsin’s Department of Plastic Surgery

Launch
RediMed Founded

After spending 10 years training doctors in Australia’s public health sector, Dr Hanh identifies a gap in the workplace health sector, which gave him an idea.

Some workplace health providers are spotty in their service coverage, leaving their clients to fill the gaps with internal resources or additional outsourcing.

So Dr Hanh founds RediMed – an end-to-end workplace health provider that delivers everything from surgical treatments to medicolegal services, all under one roof.
