LED BY DR. ELLIE CANNON
Our Menopause Clinic is led by Dr Ellie Cannon, an NHS and Private GP with deep expertise in women’s health and menopause care. Her approach is known for being calm, balanced and evidence-led — helping women cut through the noise, understand their options clearly, and make confident decisions about their treatment.
Ellie places great importance on honesty and nuance. She supports the benefits of HRT but is equally committed to explaining its limitations without over-promising. Patients value her level-headed guidance, her ability to translate complex information into digestible terms, and the reassurance she provides during what can be a confusing stage of life.
Alongside her clinical work, Ellie is well recognised in the media for offering clear, trustworthy health advice. She writes the weekly Health column for The Mail on Sunday, appears regularly on BBC, ITV and LBC, and is known for her straightforward communication style.
Her recently published book on HRT reflects the same philosophy: practical, impartial and designed to empower women with sensible, reliable information.

A place where you feel understood
Menopause care designed around you
Menopause can be unsettling, especially when symptoms are wide-ranging or unpredictable. Many women feel overlooked or unheard before they arrive with us. We make it a priority to ensure you feel listened to, validated and supported by clinicians who understand what
OUR APPROACH
-
Compassionate Care
Our clinicians bring together extensive medical expertise with genuine warmth, empathy, and attentive listening. Your appointments provide the time and space to fully describe what you’re experiencing in a supportive, non-judgemental setting that truly honours your individual story.
-
Specialist guidance
No matter your medical history, there is support available. Our team includes menopause-specialist GPs experienced in caring for women with complex needs, including those with migraines, thyroid conditions, or a personal or family history of breast cancer.
-
Personalised Treatment
Every recommendation we make is informed by your medical history, lifestyle, and personal preferences. Drawing on our clinical experience and specialist expertise, we create treatment plans tailored to your specific symptoms, lifestyle goals, and overall health.
Your Menopause Consultation
Your care begins with a 40-minute consultation with one of our female GPs, starting at £240. During this appointment, we take time to understand your symptoms, medical history and priorities in detail. Your doctor will discuss both hormonal and non-hormonal treatment options, carry out any relevant examinations, and explain whether further investigations, such as blood tests or imaging, may be useful.
First Consultation
Personalised Menopause Plan
After your consultation, many women find it helpful to have a structured support period as their treatment starts working. This typically includes a personalized 12-week plan that addresses symptoms, lifestyle, sleep, exercise, and nutrition. Your doctor will discuss how this plan might be tailored to your needs and how it can complement any medications or therapies you select.
Follow-Up Appointment
Your three month review
As part of our joined-up approach, we recommend a review at three months so that your doctor can assess how you’re responding, refine your treatment plan and offer further guidance and support. Many women find this check-in reassuring, particularly during the settling-in phase of HRT or when navigating changes in symptoms.
Continous Support
Support when you need it
Your menopause specialist GP is always available for future guidance and support whenever you need it. This includes providing repeat prescriptions, review appointments and annual HRT reviews. Our goal is to ensure you feel supported throughout your menopause journey.
Holistic Support to Complement Your Treatment
Menopause care designed around you
No two women experience menopause in the same way, and meaningful support must reflect that. Our clinic is built around understanding your symptoms, your priorities and what matters most to you.
-
Menopause Nutrition
Menopause can significantly impact appetite digestion metabolism and body weight. A dedicated dietitian can help you understand these changes and develop a sustainable personalised nutrition plan. During a dedicated appointment, our dietitian Sara Hausmann will work closely with you to provide tailored guidance considering your lifestyle symptoms and long-term health goals.
-
Testosterone Therapy
Testosterone plays an important role in women’s health, supporting energy, mood, cognitive function, muscle strength and sexual wellbeing. During perimenopause and menopause, some women develop symptoms of low testosterone, and targeted treatment can help. We offer testosterone therapy after a thorough clinical assessment, ensuring your hormonal care is coordinated and supervised by an experienced clinician.
-
Menopause Weight Management
Weight changes during menopause are common due to shifts in metabolism, hormones, and body composition.
Targeted weight-management support can help. For women needing extra support, GLP-1 treatments like Wegovy and Mounjaro may be an option within a supervised plan. Our clinicians can advise how these might fit into your menopause care if you’d like to explore them.
Blood Tests And Assessments
