I regularly receive referrals from GPs especially for health issues such as menopausal symptoms and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).  I have worked closely with NHS GPs, pharmacists and consultants where patients wish to use Herbal Medicine or Nutritional Therapy alongside NHS treatment, and I contact each client’s GP (given their permission) to let them know that they have come to me for treatment so that we are both aware of any drugs or supplements used to ensure the patient’s safety.
