About Me
I have worked as a Gynae oncology CNS for the past 13 years.
I work with woman and their families, providing evidence based information, guidance and support from diagnosis, throughout all aspects of cancer care, including end of life/palliative care.
I have a keen interest in the field of oncology/treatment
induced menopause. This is an area I feel is often overlooked, yet it can have a huge impact on one's life after their intensive treatment is complete. I am able to work with woman and look at ways in which we may be able to minimise their symptoms without compromising their cancer care.
I typically offer appointments Monday-Friday after 17:30 or in the mornings on weekends.
