From Polly : Why I chose this role
I am continually inspired by the strength and resilience of the people I care for. Fertility, hormone health, and gynaecological conditions often sit at the intersection of physical and emotional wellbeing, and I believe patients deserve care that recognises both.
For me, this work is about more than treatments and outcomes. It’s about listening, explaining, and walking alongside people during what can be one of the most challenging periods of their lives.
My aim is always to provide a safe, supportive space where patients feel heard, respected, and empowered to move forward with confidence.
