“There’s nothing quite as rewarding as hearing you have really helped someone who has been struggling for some time”.

I gained a first class degree in Biological Sciences at University of Oxford and then went on to study Graduate Medicine at Imperial College, winning scholarships to both universities.

I am a generalist and proud. Healthcare is so much broader than just disease and the symptoms presented, and I believe it’s my holistic multi- disciplinary approach that helps me to help patients most. Getting to know patients and what motivates them are key to supporting them to lead a healthy lifestyle.

I am a GP with an extended role (GPwER) in gynaecology and work for one day a week in an NHS gynaecology clinic. I hold a diploma in Obstetrics and Gynaecology and have also taught private antenatal classes. I enjoy all aspects of Adult Medicine and have gained plenty of experience in paediatrics through my time at the Sloane Street Surgery. Mental Health awareness is so important too. I’ve always been fascinated by the human mind, and it’s rewarding to make real progress through the therapeutic relationship.

Outside of surgery hours, my three young children keep me busy. I love watching and playing sport and reading when time allows.
