Dr Farah Ahmed

MB ChB MRCGP DRCOG DFSRH

As an experienced General Practitioner with a strong focus on women’s health, I have dedicated my career to providing evidence-based, patient-centered care that empowers women to take control of their health. My clinical expertise, combined with my work in medical writing and public health education, aligns well with my commitment to delivering accessible and high-quality healthcare.

With over 15 years of experience as an NHS GP, I have developed a deep understanding of the unique healthcare needs of women across all life stages. My qualifications, include being a diplomat of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists as well as a diplomat for the Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Healthcare. I am a member of the National Association for Premensrual Syndromes, the British Menopause Society and have been awarded the Certificate in the Management of Menopause.

Beyond the clinic, I am passionate about translating complex medical information into accessible guidance, which led me to co-author Coping with PMS, a book aimed at providing practical and evidence-based strategies for managing premenstrual syndrome. Additionally, my contributions as a health writer in Good Housekeeping, Top Santé, Refinery 29, and Vogue reflect my commitment to educating and supporting women beyond the consultation room.

My work as a medical contributor to the BBC, ITV, and Sky has further reinforced my ability to engage diverse audiences and advocate for women’s health on a broader scale. I believe that healthcare should be proactive, preventative, and tailored to the individual, and I am eager to bring this philosophy to my patients.
