Frequently Asked Questions

I’ve written my thoughts here. It captures my reflections and experiences, which I hope will be helpful.

Admittedly, I do not view my roles as separate, rather, as interconnected facets working in harmony to advance women’s health. Each demands my full dedication, and I maintain a disciplined schedule to ensure every responsibility receives focused attention. By eliminating distractions and unproductive habits, I channel 110% of my efforts into what truly matters—a principle that shapes my annual Key Performance Indicators.

To maximise impact, I meticulously plan my year using a Gantt chart, translating long-term goals into actionable daily tasks. But that said—I believe it it equally important to laugh. Life should not be taken too seriously, while still being taken seriously. That balance of levity and depth, I have found, is the key to success in almost everything we do.

As resident doctor in Obstetrics & Gynaecology, I work for the NHS and do not have my own private practice. I also cannot offer medical advice online.

The purpose of this website is to create awareness of women’s issues and other causes that I hold dear.

I provide a range of professional services tailored to advancing women's health and education. These include:

• Research and advocacy consultancy, offering strategic insights and expertise to drive meaningful change.
• Medical advisory for start-ups, leveraging clinical knowledge and healthcare innovation to support emerging businesses in developing impactful solutions.
• Speaking engagements, where I share my knowledge, experiences, and reflections on key issues such as women’s health, endometriosis, and healthcare equity.
• Workshops designed to educate and empower individuals and organisations, focusing on advocacy, research methodologies, and systemic change.

Whether through consultancy, speaking, or workshops, my goal is to inspire action and foster innovation in healthcare and advocacy.
