How I work

Most people who come to see me want two things: a clear explanation of what is going on, and a plan they can actually follow.

I write to you after every appointment, in plain English, and copy the letter to your GP. You will know what I found, what we agreed, and what happens next. If I have asked your GP to do something, it is written down so nothing depends on memory.

A first consultation is up to forty-five minutes, because a hormone problem is rarely a five-minute conversation.

About me

Where I consult

Outpatient clinics run at Harley Street, or by telemedicine.

I also look after inpatients at The Princess Grace Hospital and do patient review at the Royal Free Hospital.

My secretary will offer you the soonest appointment that suits you.

Fees

Published so you know the cost before you book. Charges for tests, scans and any hospital stay are billed separately by the hospital.

Self-paying patients Length Fee
First consultation up to 45 minutes £350
Follow-up consultation up to 20 minutes £225
Telemedicine, follow-up up to 20 minutes £225

If you are insured, I am recognised by Bupa, Aviva, AXA Health, Allianz, Healix, Vitality and WPA, and I am fee-assured with them: my fees sit within what your policy allows, so you will not be asked to pay a shortfall on my consultation fees. Any excess on your policy still applies. Please get an authorisation number from your insurer before your appointment.
