Elly is a specialist GP who has had the joy of working in the wider Newcastle region since 2011.
Elly sees many patients who are neurodivergent and has a particular passion for supporting those with ADHD. Being neurospicy herself, she understands the condition from both a medical and a lived experience perspective. Other subspecialty interests include young women’s health, menopause, early pregnancy management, mental health, facial skin conditions (e.g. acne, rosacea and photoaging) and the health of little ones. Bring in a baby to see Elly and you will make her day.
In her consultations, Elly approaches each patient with genuine care and without judgment. She believes that taking the time to get to know her patient's unique health needs, and building trust, leads to better physical and mental health outcomes.
*For this reason, Elly’s default appointment length is 25 mins*. If you only require a 10 min appointment, please advise reception when booking.
Elly lives with her husband, two little girls and a lively menagerie of pets. When not at work, Elly will be found doing something artsy, indulging her sweet tooth or trying to convince her family that they should adopt another rescue kitten. Elly will never be found willingly cooking.
