Mr McEvoy has played a pivotal role in guiding Duality Healthcare’s strategic vision and growth to date as chairman and co-founder.

In his new role as CEO, Mr McEvoy will lead the company’s next phase of innovation and expansion with the goal of setting new standards of patient-focused, affordable and accessible healthcare across Northern Ireland.

The business has announced a series of key leadership appointments as it gears up for a new phase of strategic growth.

It comes after Duality Healthcare this year announced the successful completion of a £4.5 million investment round.

The funding will accelerate the launch of new clinics, further expansion of healthcare services and the creation of up to 80 new jobs across NI.

Duality Healthcare clinics are currently open in Newry, Ballymena and Omagh, with further clinics earmarked to open in 2026.

Co-founder Mr McEvoy is an experienced healthcare and life sciences executive, corporate strategist, and lawyer with a career spanning over two decades in international legal practice, corporate leadership, and healthcare innovation.

A graduate of Queen’s University Belfast, he began his career in private practice at international law firms Herbert Smith Freehills and Arthur Cox.

He then held several executive leadership roles as general counsel in the life sciences sector where he was centrally involved in cross-border mergers and acquisitions, capital markets transactions, and listings on international markets such as the Nasdaq.

Commenting on his appointment as CEO, Mr McEvoy said: “Our strengthened leadership team positions Duality Healthcare strongly to set a new standard in patient-focused healthcare.

“I am honoured to take on the role of CEO at such a key moment in the company’s growth journey and excited to lead our talented team into the future.

“Primary care in Northern Ireland is under significant pressure, and there is a clear need for new, innovative models that truly put patients first.

“I look forward to working with the wider team to deliver accessible, high-quality, affordable healthcare to communities across Northern Ireland and redefine how people experience primary care through improved access, enhanced outcomes, and building a system that truly works for patients.”
