Why do you do what you do?

I chose to become a GP because I love the variety and diversity of both the conditions I treat and the patients I care for—ranging from newborns to the elderly. Each consultation is different and stimulating, which keeps me motivated. As a GP, I have the privilege of wearing many hats—one day supporting addiction recovery, another day helping someone optimise their hormonal health. Becoming a private GP allowed me to give patients the time and attention they deserve. In the NHS, appointments were often limited to 10 minutes. In private practice, appointments range from 30 minutes to an hour and even longer for screening appointments. This allows me not just to treat their immediate concern but to help improve their overall health outcomes, which is a more rewarding and effective way to practice medicine.

What are the common symptoms that your patients tend to present with?

I see a wide range of issues, particularly seasonal illnesses like coughs, colds, and chest infections. Many patients also come to me for help with weight management, including support through nutrition and full slimming programmes. Cancer concerns are also common, especially for bowel, breast, and prostate cancers, with many patients seeking screening or prevention. Tiredness is another frequent complaint—this could stem from psychological or physiological causes, and I perform in-depth hormonal and health assessments. ADHD and broader mental health issues are also rising areas; while I’m not a psychiatrist, I work in shared care with specialist clinics to support patients with diagnosis and ongoing treatment.

What are the treatments that you're able to offer your patients?

We offer comprehensive diagnostics including blood tests (e.g. well-man/woman profiles, autoimmune panels, menopause checks), urine testing, and sexual health screenings. We also provide advanced cancer screening, including TrueCheck tests, and genetic testing for health planning or pre-conception. Through our network, we arrange MRIs, ultrasounds, DEXA scans, and more at clinics like at renowned private London hospitals. Our screening packages are tailored by age, gender, and individual medical needs, and may include further referrals for scans like coronary CTs or prostate MRIs. We aim to provide a seamless, full-service diagnostic pathway for all our patients.

What are your areas of sub-specialist interest?

My main areas of specialist interest are men’s health—including hormonal assessment and testosterone replacement therapy—addiction recovery, and weight management. I’ve undertaken additional training in these fields to offer patients a comprehensive, evidence-based approach. These areas allow me to make a significant difference in people’s lives, both physically and mentally.
