The full profile, with patients’ words

Good to know

What happens in a first consultation

Allow up to forty-five minutes. Dr Hamer takes a careful history, examines you properly, and gives you a clear plan and the reasoning behind it. Bring any recent letters or results if you have them.

Can I see her about the menopause or contraception

Yes. Women’s health and family planning are a central part of her practice, with the diploma-level training and the unhurried manner to match.

Can I see Dr Hamer for everyday and urgent problems

Yes. She assesses the full range of acute and ongoing general practice, in person or by video, and is unusually good at telling what is serious from what is not.
