Priya leads our women's health service and holds the Advanced Certificate in Menopause Care. She runs the menopause clinic on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and takes referrals from the other GPs here when a hormonal picture is complicated.
She is careful about HRT: she prescribes it readily where it is appropriate, declines it where it is not, and will always tell you which of the two she thinks you are. She also fits and removes coils and implants.
Before joining Ravelston in 2016 she worked in sexual and reproductive health across Tayside.
“Perimenopause is not a diagnosis of exclusion. It is a pattern, and it is usually recognisable if someone takes the history properly.”
