About
I have been a GP in South West London for over ten years which gives me a broad knowledge base for supporting women through life's challenges. I have enjoyed working with the team at Menopause Care since 2022.
Menopause can be a really challenging time in a woman’s life. I am passionate about supporting and educating women to help empower them to navigate this period and to optimise their health and well-being for the long term. I aim to provide individualised, holistic care to all my patients by offering hormone replacement if they wish, as well as other medical and lifestyle advice.
Medical expertise
Before settling in London, my junior doctor training included several jobs in gynaecology in the UK and an extend period in this specialty in New Zealand. Although I trained as a GP and enjoy the variety of this role, my passion for women’s health led me to further qualifications including diplomas with the Royal College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, and the Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Health. I am experienced in fitting pessaries, coils and contraceptive implants, and hold the British Menopause Society Advanced Certificate.

Philippa outside of work
"With a busy life as a working mum of 2, I look after my own mental health through exercise and cooking to satisfy love of delicious and nutritious food! Exercise is my great escape so I try to keep a focused target by entering half and full marathons and keeping up a social life with a weekly indoor climbing session with friends. I also love music and singing so have been doing my best to teach myself piano over the last year. Unfortunately I can’t claim to be an expert in this yet by any means!"
Dr Parson was very thorough and understanding and just what I needed
Lisa
Dr Philippa I saw was very professional and gave good advice, as well as listening carefully to my concerns.
Anna
Everything with Dr Philippa was great. I felt heard, and she really took the time to listen to everything I'd been going through. I have a plan now, which is just such a relief.
