What's going on
Welcome to my clinic journal. Here I share news, medical insights, and treatment updates.
12th October 2026
Had a wonderful clinic at day Evesham Aesthetics. A beautiful and happy patient, so happy with her results in-fact she insisted I pop her on my news feed! Always a pleasure to give such great results!
Clinics in Evesham are very flexible, and I'm happy to see people up to 10pm if needed-- work and life can be busy so I'm happy to try to accommodate!

Fabulous time at Blueprint Gym Worcester for my clinic evening. I didn't get the chance to try out CrossFit (maybe next time!), but I was able to provide great care to more wonderful people!
One of my patients- Lucie- suggested taking a photo next to my little sign at reception, and she said I "made me feel at ease straight away... the setting was immaculately clean. I am excited for my results"
Me too! Blueprint is a great venue and I'm looking forward to seeing your results in a couple of weeks' time! The sign will also return.

Continuing professional development
Attended a medical professionals webinar held by Dr Tim Pearce, a well known Medical Aesthetics practitioner (and GP!) in the UK.
He covered his 5 step analysis technique of assessing a patient for procedures. A great evening course to supplement my own training.
Always great to further your professional development with colleagues! Thank you Dr Pearce!
2026-7 Flu season is here!
Get your flu jabs sorted
One of the major parts of being an NHS GP is the annual scrum to arrange flu jabs. Over time this has ballooned to include RSV, Pneumococcal, and now Covid.
The eligibility criteria change yearly, and this year is no different! There are many complexities behind the decisions on whether certain groups can have them or not, and this causes the usual annual confusion and frustrations, as people who maybe had them in the past can't this year and vice-versa.
For more information on whether your are eligible, check the NHS website or your local GP likely has information on their website.
I often hear people say that they are put-off the flu jab because they had it once and then they caught the flu! This isn't quite right.
The influenza vaccine only protects you against a particular strain of flu. This means you are still able to catch other strains that may be floating around. So what is the point I hear you ask; well the NHS looks at the global outbreaks and tries to predict which strain is looking to be the worst/more dangerous and it is this strain that that try to protect you against. The jab can also cause a flu-like reaction, but this is typically not full-blown flu! Your GP can provide you more information about this.
The importance of doctors in aesthetic treatments
Choosing a medically trained practitioner ensures your treatment plan is not only designed around your unique anatomy, and aesthetic goals, but a good practitioner will take into account your wider health history, and long-term well-being.
Did you know that most non-medical aesthetics practitioners do not prescribe? This means that they aren't the ones actually deciding you should undergo treatment or not, and they have to ask a prescribing doctor to actually source the medication for you and do the prescription.
