Meet Dr. Penny

I am a GP with over 20 years of medical experience, working in Southampton since 2014 after completing my medical degree at the University of Southampton and GP training in Glasgow. Alongside my clinical work, I have spent over 15 years involved in medical education, supporting the training of future doctors and contributing to public health communication through writing, media work, and health education. I enjoy helping patients better understand their health so they can feel confident and supported in their care.

I have a special interest in women’s health and menopause care, holding the Diploma in Sexual and Reproductive Health and the British Menopause Society Advanced Certificate in the Principles and Practice of Menopause Care. My consultations focus on understanding each woman’s individual experience of menopause and developing personalised treatment plans that consider symptoms, lifestyle, and long-term health. I aim to provide evidence-based care that supports women in improving their wellbeing and quality of life.
