Testimonials

Reviews

The cover with Tego was more comprehensive than my existing insurer and I was pleasantly surprised to see some great savings on my premium. Tego are attentive and treat me like an individual – not just a policy holder.

Dr Benjamin Olesnicky

Anaesthetist

Being a FRANZCOG doesn’t necessarily mean 100% of my billings comes from the high-risk practice of obstetrics; I work also in gynaecology and fertility, both of which represent a lower claims risk to me and my indemnity provider. Tego tailored my indemnity policy to my actual practice. Not only was Tego’s policy equal to the best policies on the market in terms of cover and facilities, it was significantly more affordable; more importantly, it was reflective of my actual practice.

Dr David Moore

Obstetrician, Gynaecologist & Fertility Specialist

I recently had a rather unpleasant interaction with a patient and their family. I contacted Tego immediately who very quickly put me in touch with a lawyer who was based locally and very helpful and accommodating, and answered my calls and emails even out of work hours. I’m very grateful for the support that the Tego and the lawyer they engaged provided!

Dr Yi Zhong Zhuang

Consultant Neurologist

I was very impressed with the way Tego’s underwriters assessed me on my individual merits. Once I compared the cover with my existing insurer, I realised that Tego was offering broader cover at a more competitive premium.

Dr Alina Zeldovich

Ophthalmologist & Co-Founder Beamers

I have found the legal advice – on a range of issues – given by Tego to be very useful. All interactions have been timely, friendly and have answered my questions fully.
