Behind Tano Medica
The people and vision behind Tano Medica
Tano Medica was founded with a simple vision: to bring back the essence of traditional medicine - time, trust, and personal attention - and combine it with a modern, discreet, and luxury patient experience.
Inspired by the shortcomings of rushed appointments and impersonal systems, our clinic was designed to give every patient the space to feel heard, understood, and cared for at the highest level.

Dr Maria Carrasco
Tano Medica was co-founded by Jacob de Sá and Baron Arbab-Shastan, who shared a passion for re-imagining how private healthcare is delivered in London. Working closely with Dr. Carrasco, they set out to create a clinic that blends medical expertise with luxury standards of service.
Their role is not clinical, but experiential - ensuring every detail of patients’ journeys reflects discretion, trust, and care. Together they are building a clinic where medical excellence and a modern, client-focused approach meet seamlessly.
