I’m a GP with over 18 years of experience, a GP trainer, certified health coach, and Lifestyle Medicine Physician with a special interest in women’s health—including contraception and menopause care.

I grew up in rural India, where health was a way of life. Physical activity was naturally part of daily routines, meals were made from fresh, locally grown produce, and we were constantly surrounded by friends and family. Looking back, I now realise how deeply those early experiences shaped my understanding of health—not just as a physical state, but as something that touches every part of life.

After moving to the UK, I began to notice how food choices, lifestyle habits, and the lack of social connection were silently contributing to poor physical and mental health. That’s when I knew I had to go deeper. I trained as a health coach and earned my qualification from the British Society of Lifestyle Medicine to help people address the root causes of illness, not just the symptoms.

Over the years, I also realised that the traditional 10-minute GP consultation just wasn’t enough to truly understand and support my patients. So, I introduced group consultations and chronic disease reversal programmes—particularly for type 2 diabetes—into my practice. Seeing the transformation in my patients has been incredibly rewarding and has reaffirmed my belief in lifestyle as medicine.

I’ve since ventured into lifestyle medicine practice to have the freedom and flexibility to reach and support more people. I’m passionate about helping individuals take charge of their health through personalised, practical, and sustainable changes that truly make a difference.
