About Dr. Tang, GP & Founder of Little Ox

About Dr Chun Tang — GP, Founder of Little Ox & Medical Authority

MBChB (University of Manchester) · MRCGP · DFFP · MBA (OUBS) · 26+ years NHS & private clinical practice

Dr Chun Tang is the founder of Little Ox and one of Manchester's most recognised GPs. He has been practising medicine for over 26 years, holds posts at Pall Mall Medical (CQC-registered private clinic), and has been cited as a medical authority by some of the UK's most widely-read publications — from The Telegraph and The Mirror to Women's Health and The Independent.

He designed every Little Ox formula from clinical first principles — not as a consultant who reviewed a label, but as the founder who built the brand around what he sees in patients every week and what the peer-reviewed evidence actually supports.

Clinical Background

Dr Tang's clinical experience spans an unusually broad range of disciplines — a foundation that directly informs the breadth of Little Ox's product range:

  • Family Medicine & Primary Care (26+ years, NHS and private)
  • Emergency Medicine
  • Paediatrics
  • Obstetrics & Gynaecology (surgical assistant, medical management of inpatients and outpatients)
  • Geriatrics & Rehabilitation
  • Acute and chronic disease management including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, musculoskeletal conditions and preventative medicine

This breadth — across acute illness, chronic disease, ageing populations and women's health — is why Little Ox's range covers everything from NAD+ cellular longevity to sleep, hormonal health, gut function and structural anti-ageing.

Why Dr Tang Founded Little Ox

"In over 26 years of practice I've seen the same pattern thousands of times. Patients in their 40s and 50s coming in with declining energy, disrupted sleep, slower recovery — and leaving with no satisfactory clinical answer. The NHS isn't designed for the biology of healthy ageing. It addresses disease. The space between 'not ill' and 'thriving' is where Little Ox operates. I founded it because I got tired of not being able to recommend a supplement brand I genuinely trusted."

Little Ox products are priced at £7.99 because Dr Tang's conviction is that high-quality, independently tested supplements should not be a luxury. The same NAD+-boosting β-NMN sold elsewhere for £40+ is available at Little Ox for £7.99 — same high-quality, independently tested, honest pricing.
